[DeTomaso] Brake Booster and Master Install

[sean mundy]

Hi Mike,

I always check there first :)  There is some brake related stuff but not exactly what I'm looking for.  

It looks simple but I know there is potential to screw it up.  

Didn't you redo all your brake lines and other brake stuff a few years ago?  

Do you have an aftermarket master cylinder or stock?  

I can't figure out what flare type I need.  Maybe 2 diff types.

Looking like I have to cut and bend some tubes from the master down to the splitter block.  

There are only 3 bolts and a clip on the pedal assembly to get the thing out of the car.  

I thought I remember reading about the plunger in the master has to be set a 

certain position or the brakes don't work.  Since my Hall unit booster/master is all in one I don't think 

I have to worry about that part.  Bench bleed it then just bolt it in and hook up pedal and newly bent and flared tubes.   

Of course I'm really just guessing as I know just enough to be dangerous.

I have a brake booster/master combo that has been sitting in the box for a long time. 
Since my brakes are crap I've decided to make this my winter project. 
Pretty sure I got this combo from Hall.  I know there is a lot of discussion and writeups on 
installing boosters out there but I haven't found a good one.  
Anyone have a link handy that may help ?  Thanks, Sean
