Tom, yes deleting the power booster. I've got Mike H Mustang 2 front end with 5 lug Wilwood spindles. Out back I've upgraded to a Ford 8.8 floating rear end for disc brakes. I've bought modern Wilwood calipers and rotors for all 4 corners and with that,
the piston surface area is significant at 23 sq in. In talking to the tech support they recommend a 6:1 pedal ratio and a 15/16 MC. That said Wilwoods own pedal assemblies are a 7:1 ratio.</div>

Reading up on brakes I found that folks who cam up modern Camero and Mustangs wind up with no manifold vacuum and delete the power booster. In those applications summit, jegs, etc sell a booster delete kit with a 1" MC. Many of those cars would have similar
or more brake piston surface area.</div>

The car was at the body shop for 1.5 years, and when I got it back in may 2020. Then last year all I did was put in the block/heads/headers to start the rest of the moc up. It feels good to get things moving again in the last few weeks. </div>

???It looks like you have a good handle on this modification. Will you <br>
will delete the booster?<br>
<br>
<br>
As for trashing parts, if you have the room don't. Can't speak for the <br>
core value of the MC and Generator but at least one of the two factory <br>
exhaust manifolds is specific to the Tiger - _if I'm recalling <br>
correctly_. It use to be cast manifolds were considered a toe stubbing <br>
nuisance but I'm quite surprised at what people are asking for them <br>
these days as they regard 60's/70's cars across all brands. Some prefer <br>
the cast manifolds on the Tiger rather then deal with _potential_ leaks <br>
with headers. Or some build to originality and would seek the cast <br>
manifolds if the car they have has previously installed headers.<br>
