Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Captain, on your burb that you put the 75 impala brake setup on. Would that work on my 65? I was about to order the combo and just wanted to make sure they were the same as yours. I really like the looks of yours on there.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

The firewalls are the same from '63-'66 on the Chevy's and '64-'66 on the GMC's. So yes my '63-'66 booster bracket shown in this for sale thread will work on your '65.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

I already have your bracket. I was meaning the booster and master cylinder. Sorry, it was a long day yesterday. I kinda left that part out of the question.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

I have no idea if a '75 Impala booster and master will work on your truck. What braking system does your truck have?

On my Suburban the booster is for an Impala but the master cylinder is for a '67-'70 truck. That is because my Suburban still has drums front and rear.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

I have not tried that part, but it looks like it should work.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Captainfab,

I'm building a 65 GMC shortbed truck with my son. We are using the drive train from a 69 chevy longbed including the powersteering/steering linkage components. I'm interested in the bracket but have a few questions regarding the swap and use of your bracket.

Thanks,

I'll send you a PM.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Has anyone converted to non power disc brakes? Is this a possibility?

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

It is done quite frequently. All you need is a manual master cylinder for disc brakes and bolt it to your firewall.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Thanks for the quick response. This is my first complete brake system install. The info is much appreciated.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Capt. will you pm payment info ?

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

I sent PayPal and pm for a bracket. Thank you !

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Payment received and PM replied to. :)

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

captainfab, Just making sure this will work for a 68 swb 4x4 frame? It is has the flat area for the steering box. Thx!!

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Tis is the for sale thread for the '63-'66 brake booster not the steering box adapter plate.

To answer your question, I have sold many steering box adapter plates that have been installed on K series frames. I just do not have installation instructions or a template specific to the K series frames. I can give you a link to a build thread that has all the dimensions and pictures you need.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

My bad, i was going through so many threads about them i just replied. lol.
Yes that would be great!
Thank you sir!

Captain, I need a booster bracket for 65 C10.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

I replied to your PM :)

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Do you have some adapter brackets in stock? Just trying to figure out turnaround time for one.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

I replied to your PM. Other than a couple of powder coated booster brackets in stock, most orders are built when ordered.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Where can i source the vacuum for adding a brake booster? 1965 283. There is PCV valve and fitting behind carb that has a plug on oppsite side of the valve. Can I use that plugged port for the booster vacuum source, or does it have to be isolated from the PCV?

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

The vacuum for the PCV should be isolated from any other vacuum operated accessory. Is there no manifold vacuum port on the carburator? If the one with the PCV is the only one, then you will have to use that. Another option is a carb spacer with a vacuum port. Of course this depends on what carb you have.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

Captainfab,
Just finished the brakes on my 62 C10 that has a hydraulic clutch - drum/drum. I want to add a booster using your kit including the mounting bracket and wilwood clutch cylinder.
I just picked up an early 90's Booster and master cylinder setup from a Chevy 1500. Bolts measure 3 3/8x 31/2 so booster should be fine. Wondering if I can use the mc that is already on it or do I need a different mc. Also from reading previous posts it appears that I can eliminate the proportioning valve since it is drum/drum? Posted a picture of the booster assembly if that helps. Will get my order in as soon as I am sure I have the right parts. Thanks for your help,
Paul

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 

This for sale thread is for the '63-'66 standard booster bracket. Here is the thread for the '60-'62 trucks with the hydraulic clutch.

You can not use a master cylinder designed for a disc/drum braking system on a truck that has a drum/drum braking system. You need a drum/drum master cylinder and the appropriate booster. With that booster you would have to use a master cylinder for a 1970 Buick Estate wagon with power brakes. Are you still using the original slave cylinder?
