Re: Hydroboost on a 58 -59 3100

I plumbed the Hydroboost today. The pressure circuit goes from the pump to the Hydroboost unit from there is splits to full pressure to the Heidt's pressure bypass and to a return line that also goes to the bypass valve. It comes out of the pressure side of the valve to the rack and the return comes out of the bypass to the pump return. The rack return also goes to the pump return. I put a gage into the rack side of the bypass so I can dial down the pressure to the right PSI. This gage can also be used to test brake pressure when they are applied. It came with several adapters for brake cylinders and disc's and is a 3500 PSI gage.
Once the fenders are on I'll trim up the line lengths as anchor them properly.
