Since I will eventually put an LS engine with an rather stockish cam, I will get decent vacuum and be able to get rid of the hydroboost.
In that context i was wondering if there was a better option than the stock booster. I'm thinking about something smaller to allow better maintenance, and maybe lighter even if there isn't much to save.

HB is heavy, sure, but I made up for it by going aluminum on the MC.....

other than racing, what is rong with the HB setup???

I have had HB for some 7 years now never a problem with it.....


curious to know about .....
 
Not a problem, just a matter of function. If I have enough vacuum I don't need the extra weight. Add to that the steering pump of the LS has a single return.
Plus, I'm mildly thrilled by those fluid line going over the headers.
When the LS swap wil come, ideally that would come along with a rack and pinion and a C5 m/c.
I know it won't happen until late next year, but if I know what to look for beforehand I can wait for bargains.
