Brake Booster or Hydroboost
Will be running an LS3 525 crate motor with a T-56 transmission. Will I have enough vacuum to run the DSE 9" dual diaphragm booster or am I going to need to go to the Hydroboost?

One thing to do is to go to the Pace Performance website and pull up the page for that engine. A chat box opened when I did that, you could ask them what the manifold vacuum is at idle.
From the looks of the cam specs you may be able to run a vacuum booster. But this is nothing more then a semi-educated guess on my part.

I would go hydroboost. Less space taken and you will no longer need to worry about vacuum now or later if cam is changed.

Hydroboost all the way! It is the smallest packaging of any booster, and it will put out a LOT more assist than the 9" booster that barely fits. We have been selling Hydratech unit for years, very good product and gorgeous finishes too. I have a 3 "prep" levels listed on my website.
Let me know if I can help.
