[Tigers] Lockeheed Booosters at VB

[Mike Michels]

Ramon, did you order it from Victoria British? I understand that Delphi took
over much of the Lockheed lineup bout that the British AP brake company took
on the boosters, but haven't been able to verify boost ratios until your
note below. Havent heard of Powertune.

I ordered the seven-inch booster for the Mk II last week and it came today.

It "looks" Lockheed, but the name on the unit and the "Fitting Instructions"
is Powertune.  It claims a boost ratio of 3.00:1.

It arrived with a busted plastic air filter assembly, so it will be going
back.

I saw this asked a few days back, but didn't see any replies.  Has
anyone used one of the Lockheed booster kist from VB, specifically the
7' since their catalog says that's the one for mine?  I just started a
brake rebuild on the Tiger, and was considering a Lockeeed instead of
the more expensive pro rebuilds of my original booster.
 
I've rebuilt the original twice myselg, but swore I'd never do it again
after the time that coathanger clip slipped and I had parts flying all
over the garage.
