Brake Booster Help C4
69VETTE:
Hello Guy,
This morning i decided to take the beast out for a run & put some fuel in here, when I noticed that the break pedal felt awfully hard like I had no vacuum. I then took the car to my brothers to look at the car, and there we found out, that the plastic brake booster had cracked from the diaphragm side, right thru to the back. :omg: I gather its the original one that came with the car.. See Pics... :grr:
Does anyone know whether you can use a GM Holden booster as a replacement, or do i need to buy a replacement from the states?.. I wanted to ask, has any one used a similar commodore booster, as they look the same :thud:

Looking at the Corvette Central webb, it looks like this must be the one....

At $400 I would imagine that black paint is covering up the Gold it's made out of.

I have don't keep abreast of recent cars, but I do go to one of those wreckers were you get the bits off yourself, a walk around the different models allows me to see what I can modify or update onto my shopping trolley. But I'm sure we must have members familiar with interchangeable parts.
