    the i-booster with the Cody-swap probably wouldn't fit but im guessing about that as i have a 60's charger and at least with my 2G iron hemi i have the same fitment problematic with the polished cast valve covers, right now im using a bendex-9 system and its a tite squeeze but fits 👌did have to move the pump under the car but the master cylinder fits like the un-boosted oem 1 does and bolted into without any firewall modification

  • @humblethinker8493
    @humblethinker8493 2 года назад +3

    Really cool! So does this iBooster help make it stop better? Like, if you didn’t have this ibooster would it stop at all?

    • @FollowTheBuilds
      @FollowTheBuilds  2 года назад +1

      So manual brakes (without a brake booster) work fine but with more effort by the user. Some prefer the manual brake feel. Modernizing is the effort here and the iBooster seems to be the answer for this build and future ones. Some may see it as a luxury but i see it as needed preference.

    You mentioned an Ebay store? I would like to buy the pins and the plug for the booster I have. I see the plug on the CHIEF Ent. website but they're not much help on the pins etc. Do you plan on offering the package on EBAY??

    I’m very interested in this. I’m doing the AJE front suspension conversion on my ‘66 coupe and was possibly going to do the EPA Prius mod to the steering. Still on the to do list. I do have a couple of questions. I might have missed it, but did you have to move the master cylinder mount location to the left a couple inches or did it mount in the stock location?(I’m guessing you installed a coyote or is that an LS?) And second, if for what ever reason, if the booster lost power, does it have a fail safe mode, and go back to manual brakes? Thanks. Just started following you channel. I like the content.

    • @FollowTheBuilds
      @FollowTheBuilds  2 года назад

      Awesome. Thanks for following along!
      About to do a EPA with a Nissan Versa myself.
      Stock location for the booster/master cylinder. I’m interested in configuring the brake pedal with all the stock mount. I’ll need to modify a push rod to accommodate.
      Yes manual brakes if the electrical should fail.

    • @POLOreme
      @POLOreme 2 года назад

      @@FollowTheBuilds appreciate the response. I’m also wondering if this will only work for an all disc brake configuration? If you have front disc and rear drums, can it still work? I’m guessing all drum is out of the question? (Haha just thinking of other projects I have)
      Thanks

    • @charlesgunzelman3323
      @charlesgunzelman3323 Год назад +1

      @POLOreme if you want to use rear drum brakes, you'll need a residual valve and an adjustable proportioning valve. Some prop valves have the drum residual valve built in.
      This unit does fail back to manual brakes if the electric motor inside fails. It's designed to retract back to the default position. SuperfastMatt took it apart and shows how it works.

    I noticed you have the one-piece products window installed. How does it fit? how about gaps with the standard ford mustang seal? Mine has a 1/2" gap in the front and I am really struggling with the fitment. Any suggestions please let me know.

    • @FollowTheBuilds
      @FollowTheBuilds  Год назад

      Hi there! I do love the look but I have to say it was a very real struggle to get it all lined up. I wanted to show a video of installing them but it was very frustrating footage! Lol. After several attempts I was able to manage a gap in front that seals. The trick (for me) was to elongate the hole in the front upper capture bracket . That allowed the front to adjust upper ward without affecting the rear position (too much). Please keep me in the loop on your progress…I’d love to follow along.
