Right, the little canister provides enough reserve to stop the car safely, about 3 additional stops.
After that, from what I was told with the Wilwood M/C I'm running it would equate to stopping a car with regular manual brakes.

I have a Hydroboost on my 68 and out of everything I did to the car, this by far was the #1 upgrade I did.  Even better than the 5 speed.  Just my  .

FWIW, some hydroboost setups utilize an internal reserve (ie: no "little canister"). Just know what you're buying and be sure whatever you go with has some sort of reserve.

OK now here is the? of the day which brake set is the best one for this unit.

Thanks

What size wheels are you running? Baer and wilwood have sets that fit 15" wheels and have big sets for 17" and up. Dr. Diff also sells some cobra caliper kits for a good price. Good thing about the wilwoods is they fit the drum spindle. I have a set of wilwoods with a 10.75" rotor on mine right now and they work great with the hydroboost. A 100 times better than the old power booster. But I do feel that the small rotors struggle with size and weight of the car so I am planning on going to a Baer kit with big calipers and 13" rotors in the spring.

Totally agree. Just knowing that you can make your car handle a quick emergency stop is worth the price. But a 5 speed would be soooo nice. I cant wait to get out of the slow lane on the highway.

You'll love the bigger 13" kit with the hydroboost. The 6-piston Wil's with the hydroboost are awesome.    Very positive feeling for sure.

Hey Bill! Glad to hear you like the Wilwoods. I have been going back and forth between the Wilwoods and Baers. Have you had any complaints with your setup?

Iam running on 15" wheels. I have been looking SSBC, Wilwoods, also some sets from PST, I can not go to crazy the hydrboost is going to be about 1100.00 everything include, Iam also drop the front and redoing that.Iam going to check out this Dr. Diffbut from what I see I going to been spending  about 800.00 to 1000.00 for the brakes.

Thanks Mike

Once I got everything dialed in, no complaints here. I liked the fact that I did not have to swap spindles, either.
I had a few bugs. The rear calipers were leaking fluid. I thought they were bad, sent them back & it turned out to be just assembly lube. They must have used a lot, because they were dripping for a while. Put them back on & they were fine. Also had a leaky bleeder screw (they are a two-piece job). I bled the brakes for a long time to get all the air out. I must have over-tightened the bleeder & got a leak. Had to order a replacement. Real minor stuff.
I think it's a real nice system. Way better designed than the SSBC crap I had. It works really well with the hydro boost.

Thanks Mike
