The brake conversion is done - FINALLY.
We had to buy a new booster, the free one that I had that was 40 yrs old leaked - imagine that! The new one is an 8" (7 1/2" actually) and left alot of clearance between the carb and booster. With the stock booster I had less 1 1/2" of clearance.
Works great! Had the alignment done today. The camber was WAY off, as I read it would be. The alignment stopped any shakes and vibrations and it stops like a new truck - I am truly amazed at how well it drives and stops now. Also put a bearing and synchro ring kit into the T5 while it was down.
Also downsized the jets in the Holley, hopefully for the last time. Drove it 116 miles back and forth to work. I'll update the other thread 'bout the Holley tuning after a couple of days of driving to check the mileage.
