    I thought about it but I had the same basic setup on my 51 Plymouth with Explorer four wheel disc brakes and a Corvette manual master cylinder and was pretty happy with it. Stiffer pedal than power brakes for sure but it stopped well.

    Yeah, I'm sure it'll stop just fine. I suggested the hydraboost because I thought you were originally building this car for the Mrs. and I didn't know how many "creature comforts" she prefers. Of course, since the auto trans is gone, I guess she must enjoy shifting gears...
