Best would be upgrade to hydroboost...easiest would be just replace the vacuum unit..somewhat a personal choice however

Re: looking for booster advice

I have an 83 C20 454 and I got a Delco booster. Mine came with two different pins - I used the one that was on the original booster. The Delco booster worked out fine but the case did start rusting right away. I guess Delco was too cheap to properly plate the case or paint it. I would shop around for the best price. I think I got mine from Dave's Auto online.

Thank you for the reply, I think I'll shop around and pick up a Delco unit.
