Adding a brake booster to a 65

Been looking around a bit and found a couple different ones. they all pretty much seem the same. Mustangs Plus, Trans Am Racing.net an a couple on Ebay. My question is, does anyone here have any experience with these? Particularly the Ebay kits?

I have a 65 Coupe with a Versallies/Granada front and rear disk swap and I have the proportioning valve from the donor car. Will these booster/MC kits work for me?

Go check out Mustang Steve's website and look at his complete conversion for this very thing. I did it in my wife's '65 and also did a new Granada disc brake swap kit and it stops on a dime!

The installtion is rather "simple" - just not much room to work with in that area ... also you will likely have to open up a little bit the opening in the firewall ... and make sure you have the right lenght push road - the first one I got was too long
