I am sure a lot of you have run into the same situation and I hope someone has a solution.
I will be installing the 2229 booster with the DSE brackets on my 69 camaro. The booster has a long rubber boot that will need to extend through the firewall by an inch or two. I have seen posts where folks have had to enlarge the opening in the firewall so it will fit.
Here is my issue, the rubber boot will not seal against the firewall, just pass through. How do you make this opening weather proof? I do not want water or engine smells getting into the cabin.
Thanks for your help
There is a seal plate and seal to go with the angle brackets. See this install instructions for details:

Weird that they sell the brackets but not the seal or the seal plate...

Thanks for the help, I contacted DSE and they do sell them separately. You just have to call and tell them what you are looking for. About $30 for both pieces, plate and rubber boot/seal.

So it looks like the parts DSE sells still work with the Tuff Stuff booster? Any info on compatible master cylinders?
