I have a question friends, I'm trying to decide what size brake booster/porportioning valve to install 7" 8" or 9" do you think I would have enough room for the larger 9"? running a 350 small block. I have the converted pads on front, and shoes/drums on back and original brake pedal arm under dash. Any help appreciated...

If you go back and look at Carl's avatar you will see he passed away in November. I think Carl was probably looking for pictures.

If you are installing a booster, the largest one you can fit will work better... When people use the smaller ones, it's usually because they can't fit a larger one.

Ugly Gold Anodized chinaman boosters are why I have manual disk.

My recommendation is look into to a hydraboost. They have a much more solid pedal, better braking, and don’t depend on vacuum. I will not go back to a vacuum booster.

I would consider a hydra boost before some off shore Chinese crap.

Thanks; for all the help, where do I find a hydraboost for a 57 chevy 210 never used one before I was thinking of a 8 or 9" all chrome booster/valve.

Look on line. There are a number of sources, and prices vary a fair amount.
