Wilwood brakes, master cylinder and brake booster

[anders90]

Hey! i'm doing a full-fram off restoration on my chevelle 66.

I have just bought Wilwood front disc kit 140-7675d and Wilwood rear disc kit 140-7141d

It looks great, now i need a master cylinder and a brake booster that runs nice with these kits!
I've read at a place that u dont need a booster with wilwood brakes, but it would be nice to drive with a booster.

Then i'm wondering, i whant to buy 2"dropped spindles, the front kit are built for original spindles, so i dont know witch one to use, i have also bought swaybar kit from hotckins if that would be problem?

We have a polished stainless 8" dual diaphragm booster and new aluminum Corvette style master that works perfect for $300 for the entire kit

You can run any brake system manually or boosted, it's just a matter of sizing the components properly. That said, if you want to run vacuum assist, then go for it, but you should at least make sure that your engine is making adequate vacuum levels first. Frank's kit above is a good kit that brings the bling for the cost, plus he's a huge Wilwood distributor.

You have several modular drop spindle options for the 64-72 A-bodies which use the OE brakes, however you may want to consider a tall ball-joint kit instead from someone like Mark at SC&C (www.scandc.com). It'll give you about an inch of drop and much better suspension geometry overall. If you search the suspension forum, you'll find more information that you know what to do with regarding the various drop spindle options...or if you call Mark, you can get it all compressed into one very informative phone call.
