Lots of things to think about. Appreciate all the tips!

I'm starting to develop what I think is important to me.

1. I'm not sure how I will like operating a floor mounted pedal. Does it tend to be more of a downward direction when you step on it?

2. I'm not sure if I like the possible issues with bleeding an under floor system. I need to research that a little more.

3. Joedoh said he has a "plate" for a firewall mount. I think it may use the S10 pedal assembly. My chassis won't have that included in the deal.

What about this mount? https://www.performanceonline.com/19...4aAmqmEALw_wcB

I'll would make sure the engine's vacuum specs would be compatible with the booster as I don't like the looks of the Hydro-Boost.

I've been looking at photos of trucks with a firewall mount and it's not too crowded.
