Hi There everyone,
I am build a 302 Windsor Xp 2 door coupe. And I'm looking to fit a brake booster to the firewall along with a double master cylinder. Has anyone done this and what set up did you use??? I have heard a few people talk about a Gemini booster as they are only about 5 inches in diameter with a xb master cylinder??? Any info or pics would be help full. Cheers Darryl. |

Thanks Mate,
I have a tread in classics of my project. And have just replied to noflac52 who has also mentioned hopper stoppers, He has also told me to move my thread to the projects which I have now done and updates will happen there as I do them. Have you purchased a kit and in place how much roughly???? Disc up front drum back set up???? Cheers Darryl |

Just a thought, why don't you go to 4 wheel discs? It is not all that hard to do. I believe that some of the later Falcon diffs almost bolt straight in. By later, I mean XW, XY, XA,B,C. and maybe even the D,E,F diffs.

The kit was about $550 which is pretty fair considering you'd hardly buy a new booster and master at that price .
It fits up pretty nicely and has all you need , minor mods to the pedal box and open up the hole in the firewall a touch.. If you like i have a copy of the instructions i can send you , PM me an email address if you'd like to see . |
