1955-1964 Chevy Power Brake Booster Bracket, Passenger Cars

This bracket makes it easy to convert to power brakes while keeping the master cylinder level. The bracket is designed to work with 1955-64 Chevrolet A Body and B body passenger cars such as the Bel Air, Biscayne, Impala and Caprice. The booster side of this bracket has the common 3-3/8” center to center both vertical and horizontal.

  • Makes it easy to convert to power brakes
  • 3-3/8” center to center both vertical and horizontal - booster side
  • Designed to work with 1955-64 Chevrolet A Body and B body cars (Bel Air, Biscayne, Impala, Caprice)

Note: Depending on the application, this kit, in many cases changes the mechanical advantage or pedal ratio. With power assist less pedal pressure is required and to help eliminate some of the pedal travel the attachment location on the pedal arm may be further from the pivot point. You will need to have a straight alignment of the rod to the assembly and also a straight in alignment of the push rod to the booster.

Universal Power/Manual Master Cylinder, 1 Inch Bore

These high-tech Corvette-style master cylinders were designed using OE specifications and 100% tested. They have a 1" bore and are suited for disc/drum combinations.

These master cylinders will work with manual or power brake systems and can be quickly changed with the included adapter pin to plug the deep well. The wide body and low profile gives this master cylinder the clearance you need when installing in tight areas and yet it maintains a large volume of fluid necessary for 2 and 4 wheel disc brake applications.

Speedway Single Diaphragm Power Brake Booster, 7 Inch, Chromate Finish

Single diaphragm boosters are compact for installation under floor or on firewall of almost any vehicle. Booster measures only 7" in diameter. Zinc chromate finish. The single diaphragm is usually used on lighter vehicles. In the heavier applications of 3000-3500 pounds or more we normally use the dual diaphragm boosters.

You will need full manifold vacuum available to the booster. Manufacturer requirements vary between 18 and 20 inches of vacuum. With radical cams there are many cases where there is a loss of the necessary vacuum and the only option is a 12 volt vacuum pump available from Speedway under part number 91028146.

  • O.D. is 7" Length from mount surface to master cylinder mount surface is 3-5/8" (this does not include the shoulder that extends into the master cylinder)
  • 3/8 x 24 thread pushrod that is 4" long from mount surface to end of the threads (pushrod nut included)
  • 4 bolt mount pattern on 3-3/8" centers
  • Mount bolts are 5/16 x 20 and 7/8" long and nuts are included
  • Master cylinder mount studs are 3/8 x 18 and 1-1/16" long and 3-3/8" on center

Speedway Drum Brake Residual Valve, 10 PSI, Purple

Ever had problems with a spongy pedal or slow, unresponsive brakes? If so, you may need a residual pressure valve installed in your brake line. A redesidual valve acts like a one-way or check valve to maintain brake system pressure to eliminate the problems of a spongy pedal. This 10 PSI residual valve is installed inline between the master cylinder and drum brake wheel cylinders to keep 10 PSI of residual pressure at the wheel cylinder after the brake pedal is released. This ensures that you will have a high, firm pedal next time you press the brake pedal.

GM Disc/Drum Proportioning Valve for 3/8-24 Outlets

These proportioning valves are similar to what GM used on many cars in the 70s. They are non-adjustable and may require an adjustable valve in the rear brakes (if needed).
