If you have a hydroboost system, get the better pump shaft he sells. Shaft breakage with hydroboost will fail the brakes and steering at the same time! It's happened.

Thanks for the info and heads up David. I'll give him a holler and mention the better pump. I did tell him I plan to eventually go hydroboost so...

Look forward to meeting you and Mary one of these days out at the track
