With the 9" booster I`d try a 1.125" master and see how you like it. If the pedal travel feels good but the effort is too high or if you want even more stopping power pitch the vacume booster for a Hydratech unit.
We worked with Paul and Baer on the brakes. The `Burban has a bizzare pedal ratio so everything was a little different,we`re actually running a huge 1.25" bore master on there. There are still a lot of little details to finish up on it before I can post pics but you can bet I will! It`s a big bad ride. :) Mark SC&C

I have a friend who bought a wrecked 2006 Silverado 3500 (HD). It has a Hydroboost unit on it. They are getting a donor truck for it (;) ) and they will have an extra Hydro unit. Do you think that's something i could use?

What about the stock C6Z master cyl and booster unit? Never heard anyone using it and tought there must be a reason...But its made to operate those baby correctly no?

Mike, what about line size, stock too to begin with?

Marcus, did the guy's at Hydratech set you up or if you called the shots on the 'Sub? Lets see pics of that monster!

Don't mess with trying to change line sizes. That will open a whole new can of worms.

I would think the HD unit would operate a higher pressure due to the higher vehicle weight and would require custom metric one ended lines to make it work if you have an older ps setup. Several guys have run the Mustang hydro unit with some sucess and are reasonable on ebay.
