[Healeys] Do we like brake boosters ?

[I Erbs]

I fitted a booster to my 1960 BT7. I have not hooked it up yet as I have
not had the car back on the road since I started by cosmetic restoration a
few years ago. My thinking was that I might need it to assist me in
actuating the clutch due to a deteriorating left knee and now ankle. I
installed a BJ8 clutch and Smitty 5 speed and hope that will that will do,
so I can hook it up my Brakes. I bought a later model MC to go with the
servo. If my test drive around the block is a bellwether, then the new set
up should work fine and I will boost the disk brakes.
Watch this space for further developments.
Cheers
