      dipren443 checking in here.

      Still making them, but do not have any 1st gen units available at the moment. Also, I didn't delete my thread. The moderators deleted it for me (I am not an advertiser). Any one who purchases this from Roberts68, let me know and I will loan the socket for mounting the hydraboost unit to this (It is a special Kent Moore socket) and share my knowledge to assist in the install. I do have a run of 1st gen brackets in progress at the machine shop. Upon completion of those, I will pay for advertisership and list them.

      The bracket was designed to work with GM hydraboost units. Not Ford units. Astro vans, GM/Chevy trucks & SUV are all good donors. I cannot vouch for the fitment with the Corvette units. I have never been able to get my hands on a C5/6 HB unit.

      I dont think that the C5/C6 Corvettes have hydroboost. My 2006 Z06 does not, nor does my friends 2000 (C5)

      I have been told it was optional, but I am not a C5/6 expert.

      Was never an option on the C5 or C6. Looks like a a nice piece, wish I was in the market right now.

      That right there speaks volumes to Nick's character and support after the sale. Thank you Nick!

      More than I ever could have asked for in terms of answers to Tony's questions.

      Thank you for the clarification on where the original thread went. I meant no disrespect. I had just made the assumption it was a limited run that was repeated a time or two based on forum interest. Glad to hear that they are still in production and wish you the best of luck. Maybe I should just forget I have this for awhile and see if the urge to do Hydroboost flares up again in the future but as for now it is still available.
