not hydro?
not hydro?
vaccum booster.
Hydro sucks, vacuum works great.
I can't say as I've ever had a problem with vacuum assisted brakes.
me neither
I've only had the hydro boost brakes fail me once. That was actually more steering related.
Blew a line in a densely populated urban area pulling a heavy load. Brake assist of course, went along with the steering. The next 40 minutes were pretty intense.
At least with the vacuum boost, the two systems are separate.

First gen dodge trucks had vacuum boosters. The engine has a vacuum pump between the timing case and the power steering pump.
Which, from what I understand is a pretty good pump for producing braking vaccum. Different than what you get from a gas engine.
2nd gen Dodges had it too and yes it works just fine... my '94 2nd gen 12 valve had vacuum brakes.
just wondered... carry on with the tank... I mean TRUCK build
Looks good you doing a bar across the top of the engine ?
Yep. Plan right now is for two. One in the front and one near the cowl.
