Hi Matt! your site is the exact site I went to looking for boosters before I posted up this question, kinda funny, anyway.....

to answer your questions, the MC I'm using has a 1 inch bore diameter, and can be used for manual or power. My firebird has a sbc 305 with the small valve covers, so I guess the 11 inch would work fine. I'd rather get prebent lines if possible, but if need be I can bend my own, as much of a pain in the butt it is hahaha. Is there anything else needed to make the switch?

also, my Mc has a bore adapter so it can be used with manual or power. I have the adapter in with manual brakes, I don't know if I'm supposed to or not, total noob here. how is it supposed to be run with a power setup. thanks for your help by the way, when I do make my purchase you will definitely be getting my business.

The new booster will come with both deep and shallow pins so no worries there.

We typically run a 1 1/8" master with the 11" or 9" if we get into a 8" dual or smaller we go 1"

With the 1" and a larger booster you will have more pedal travel than necessary.

We do have a booster/master/prop kit that also uses our prebent hardline kit...its bumper to bumper with all new clips and rear axle flex too.

PM me and let me know which way you want to go and i will get you some $$$

Thanks for the support
Matt
