Default Hydroboost Brake Systems

HI GUYS! My name is Bob Sweeting from Power Brake Service in Long Beach, ca. I see that all of us hot rod crazies love to modify our cars for more horsepower, but the brakes usually end up lacking the equal of the horsepower. We have seen many LS-1's to LS-7's being transplanted to earlier vehicles, (usually with a bigger cam) and having clearance or low vacuum problems to work the brakes. Have you seen or thought of the Hydroboost power brake systems? These power brakes work off of the power steering pump, and require no vacuum. They are also very compact, and are actually smaller than the (off shore) 7" vacuum booster many people try to use. They can generate up tp 2000 psi to the calipers, with any horsepower or vacuum situation. The Hydroboost doesn't care if you have turbo's, low ground clearance, or exhaust pipe clearance, (on frame mounts) it JUST WORKS. We also have mountings for the new Camaro's and Corvettes. They work great on the Buick Grand Nationals, as they will hold the brakes while you spool up the turbo, picking up another 150 hp on the line. They just featured on "TRUCKS! T.V." (TRUCKSTV.COM) and on the website "POWERBRAKESONLINE" See if this will solve those hard to fix brake problems. We guarantee it. Bob
