Barry,   if you can, check the "pantera" booster to see if the studs are 
metric thread. That will certainly tell you something. Mid-'80s GM boosters 
have a 4-bolt SAE pattern, and the shops that sell them in a Pantera 
conversion cut the 4 studs off and weld on three new metric-thread studs in the 
Pantera pattern. And to do that, the entire booster must be stripped, cut/welded 
then rebuilt and re-alodine-coated. Seems like if there was an easy way to 
use an adapter, they would've found it rather than going to that much 
trouble. Good luck- J DeRyke
