How much room under the hood does this take up? And also wanted to ask if anyone has the chrome booster/cylinder? If so,how well does the chrome hold up? Heres a link,or maybe someone knows of a better kit. Thanks http://www.performanceonline.com/Power-Brake-Boosters-c-1057/ | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 4,252 "Hey!

Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 4,252 | Under the hood, it takes up as much room as a normal booster / master would. http://www.bunchobikes.com/1952suburban4.htm Second picture from bottom. I got mine from CPP. I have no opinion on chrome versus non-chrome. There is enough room under the hood of these old trucks that you can stack 2 14-71 blowers and still close the hood. What else did you need to fit under there? | | | | | Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 64 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 64 | MNSmith,
The pictures are just what I was looking for.I have a big block under the hood and was wondering how it would work. Your pictures answered my question.
