Re: Power Booster Rod Help?
Based on the picture I would use the top hole. That would put the rod more inline with the MC. Why did you drill the extra hole?

Re: Power Booster Rod Help?
If you use the upper hole and you don’t have brakes till the bottom of the pedal, move it to the lower hole. With the factory booster and bracket it has an angled rod right behind the booster. You need to have the correct brake pedal ratio. Otherwise things won’t operate correctly. I put in a universal booster with captain fabs bracket. I had to drill a second hole and inch lower in order to have a full pedal.

Re: Power Booster Rod Help?
I ordered my power master brake cylinder today but it does not come with the mounting bracket. Could one of you gents please post a link to Captain Fab's site, please. I know I'm going to need it and would ather use a proven design than come up with something on my own.

Re: Power Booster Rod Help?
Thanks BASE. I'll wait to order a set until I get my MC. Just to be sure the hole patterns match.

Re: Power Booster Rod Help?
When I got mine I think he provided a list of compatible boosters, or recommendations. Might be worth an email.

Re: Power Booster Rod Help?
Just placed an order for one of the brackets from Custom Fab, for my ‘70 C10 (appreciate the link, BASE). The bolt pattern measurement is 3-1/2” x 3-3/8”.
