If your 1973-87 Chevy square-body has a big cam, a diesel, or just no room for a vacuum booster, hydro-boost is how you get a firm power pedal. This kit pairs a hydraulic booster unit with the hoses to plumb it into your power steering system. It runs off power steering pressure instead of engine vacuum, so pedal assist doesn't fade when manifold vacuum drops.
Why It's Worth It
- Hydraulic booster gives strong assist regardless of engine vacuum, which works well with low-vacuum big-cam engines and vacuum-less diesels.
- Unit and hose kit together, so you're not piecing together high-pressure lines.
- Mounting bracket and hardware included for a clean install on the firewall.
- A compact booster frees up space compared to a large vacuum canister.
What's Included
