Default Brake Booster

I have a 67 mustang coupe. I'm going to install a front disc conversation kit. And I was wondering if anyone knows if any other mustang brake boosters will bolt on to mine. Or from any other car. I'm trying not to spend too much money on it. Still have a lot to do on it. Any help is appreciated.

Just go to autozone and get a remanufactured unit for between $90-120 that will come with a new master cylinder,, that price is good if you have an old one to turn in as a core.

Make SURE you get the right power booster/pedal combination for your brake system. There are boosters that use manual pedal and boosters that require power pedals. The throw is different. Also make sure you get one that fits your system (i.e. disc/disc, disc/drum, or drum/drum). Some booster options are:

Master Power Brakes

I personally am going to go the Master Power route with Wilwood brakes when I get up for that project.

Thanks guys. Autozone is a little bit more. I work at Kragen actually. And they even are pretty pricey with my discount. I found the booster and master cylinder through Summit or Mustang Plus. I just wanted to see if I could use one from like an older style mustang or something...cheaper. Thanks again!
