Brake Booster Help C4
Camo:
Scott's the man. A wealth of knowledge :thumb:
Ausrs:
My 1987 had a split plastic booster,I used the booster off of an 84 as they were metal
I have been told since that an EL Falcon uses the same booster as the C4with the vacuum hose out of the other size as its an Aussie car

YEP...I just got off Corvette Central web site and purchased myself a metal brake booster (already painted black) to replace the one that's cracked. Its designed to suit 1986-1991 Corvettes !... its a waiting game now !..
I will upload pics during the process, when were doing the replacement for others if they have the same problem as a guide.
Ausrs:
Be careful with the replacement and how far it pushes the brake master cylinder,I replaced the booster and had to replace tha master about 4 weeks later, and if it is anything like the C4 remove the seat before you lay down to undo the bolts

Thank you Ausrs for that advice.. Scott also from CAC also advised me to remove the seat, its alot easier that way. Im hoping the booster wont affect the master cylinder, as its running an upgraded system and C5 Z06 brakes...
Now you have me worried... damnn... it should be good....
This is the product that i bought on line...
