True that, Duane! I've heard that the accumulator on the HydraStop will supply enough pressure for three powered stops before it reverts to "manual" (which is really no brakes at all). I'd be lying if I said I trusted that to be 100% the case.
So... time for something new.
Kathy and I drove over to St. Louis today and I purchased my next project. It's a 1957 Chevy 210 4dr station wagon dressed as a Bel Air. Has a 283 ?? with some sort of 3 speed auto trans in place of the stock Powerglide. A little rust, but looks manageable. I'll be posting to the Alt builds thread when it gets underway.
