Happy New Year everyone!!

i have some brake questions about c5 brakes.

#1. i am eventually going to do the c5 front upgrade, but first i have to get the camaro back on the road. my brake booster is going bad so i plan on getting a new one soon and was wondering if i should still get one for my car, or should i get one from a trans am (or other car vett?) since they came with disc/disc? (i would like to use the most factory parts as possible since i am on a budget)

#2. is there a difference between disc/drum and disc/disc boosters or is the diff in the prop valve?

thanks for your knowledge

YES there is on the disc/ drum there a valve fitted to because the shoe spring froces the shoes back, this needs to be removed when fitting rear discs from drums.
