Over the past year I did an ls turbo swap in my 67 cutlass I went with a up and forward header set up so I lost my hydro boost set up and currently have manual brakes. With the added power I would like to run power assist brakes. I found master power offers a remote dual diaphragm booster and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this unit?

I haven't seen much about that particular setup, but I have another option. There's a company called ABS Power Brake Inc. that makes an electric power brake system. I've talked to a couple people that had that system in their cars, they both said it works awesome. Only reason I didn't get one is the price is a little steep. Maybe give them a look if the other system won't work.

So after talking to a few people locally and a lot of research I found someone who makes a set up which you use a single cylinder master at the fire wall then a slave cylinder to work the hydroboost. I mounted the set up in my truck and it works beatifully. I know most of you have the room not to go this route however with my up and forward headers and turbo set up this is the best in came up with
Thanks
