Re: '67-'72 Power Brake Booster Bracket With Hydraulic Clutch Conversion

Captainfab hooked me up with a partial of this kit as I had already done my own booster mod and already had the same master cylinder. Mine went into a '67 so it's slightly different than what's pictured above. Let me say that every piece of this kit is HIGH QUALITY (laser cut, nicely deburred / chamfered, plated, grade 8 hardware, etc...) All combined it's a fantastic design. This is a super easy install and looks great. I haven't done the slave yet but clearly this is going to work perfect. The pedal goes very close to the floor and the actuation is super smooth and spot-on. Well done John!

I bolted the laser cut plate to the firewall, used the closest size hole saw I had and ran it through. I used a burr much like a flush trim router bit, letting the smooth part of the shank ride on the plate while the cutters flushed the sheet metal to the plate. It's easy to use the plate as a pilot to stab the 11/32" holes for the master mounting flange. I drilled a hole in my clutch pedal lever to line up with the installed master cylinder linkage and simply bolted it all together. Works slick and looks awesome!
