Arrow Brake Booster ?

Fellow Members,

I have decided my first project on my 67 Coupe will be Wilwood disc brakes on all four corners. Question, can I postpone the a brake booster conversion to a future date when I have decided to stay with the auto trans or change to a top loader/T5.

After researching many threads it is apparent I will need different brake booster depending on which trans I have in the vehicle. Please confirm this is correct as well.

Thanks in advance.

If rotor size, slave cylinder and master cylinder sizes are matched correctly it can be postponed indefinitely...did you really want that thing crapping up your engine compartment?

I would talk to wilwood tech and ask about matching a system to avoid a brake booster.

Ha ha ha. I know I hear you. A brake booster definitely cramps up the engine bay. Thanks for the recommendation. I will talk to wilwood directly before I move forward.
