I am pretty sure the pedals are set up for a Hydro booster. Can I use a Vacuum booster off a C20 instead or am I limited to using a Hydro booster? | | | | | Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 321 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 321 | I had put a disc brake set up on my 1953 1 ton and I took a vacuum line off the intake manifold and it worked very well. I believe from the factory they would have taken vacuum for the hydro-booster off of the intake manifold. I have a picture in my archives on my photo bucket account showing how I plumbed it in.
Hope this helps you out.

I am not sure I am sold on installing the Hydro booster setup and might opt out and install the Vacuum booster instead ( if possible with this setup).
