Bill,
Do you remember if you used the 5" or the 7" ? Someone has said that the
5" doesn't give as much boost as the Girling 5".
And does anyone know if the MKll that used a 7" just had more boost or was
something changed such as the MC to compensate?
Thanks,
Mark

I installed a Lockheed Brake Booster about 20 years ago and it still works
perfectly, easily locking the front wheels. I did not use a VB kit but
installed it easily myself. I used cushioned hose clamps on the tubular
firewall to front fender supports to hold the body. I then made a bracket
to
fit between existing holes on the firewall and fender to hold the snout
with
another cushioned clamp. As I recall I had to make up one new hydraulic
line.
If anyone wants pix let me know or check it out at the Queen Mary.
Bill
