Just about finished under the car.......By moving the trans cross member back a couple inches, it now made the E-Brake cable way too long.........had to cut it to suit and make a new stop feature for locking the cable........worked out perfectly.....

I had given Dewitt's the information on where the mounting holes needed to be on the radiator I purchased for my `65. Andy's radiator spacer should be the same. Dewitt's evidently did not save these measurements for the next job.

The Hydra Boost set up has not shown up as of yet. I'll be calling on Monday. Almost six weeks since I placed the order. They must be in demand. Hope it gets here soon. I want to really get a chance to drive my Impala before it needs to be tucked away for winter.

Where are you purchasing the Hydraboost from? I'm contemplating the same, and what brake set-uo do you have?

Re: Andy's 66 Caprice LS Conversion Upgrade
 
Is the hydroboost a modified version or a stock application for some recent car?
