Re: M/C and booster relocation.

interesting choice of wings,.

the booster is mounted sideways, and all the ducting under the dash is gone. Interesting, but hard to do on a street car

yeah the body mods on the car really are not a selling point to say it in a nice way lol. as far as the brake parts. I just wondered if anyone else here did thisb/c I wanted to see what they used for a mounting bracket and also what they did to get the break pedal to be able to acuate the booster.

Id guess its something along these lines



Fab up a rocker and the related mounting brackets
Should be simple enough to do with a welder and scrap metal

Why? You lose the factory ducting, alot of street cars have this system deleted, and even a few stock ones
You can always go back with standard duct hose afterwards if these functions are so necessary
