Update 3/11/24: Ordered the Hydratech hydro-boost kit today. 30 to 90 day lead time :-( After speaking with Jim @ Hyrdratech I also ordered a Borgeson PS pump for Hydro-Boost Brake Applications (Dual low-pressure inlets). According to Jim @ Hyrdratech, and confirmed by Borgeson, there are two...

Thanks @Bret Schneider. Good to know I'm on the right track. Curious to know why you changed the steering components. Not liking that classic Mopar vague and numb PS feel? I will be looking into a new PS pump with the dual low pressure inlets while everything is apart - might as well make one...

Asking for some feedback on hydro boost kits. 1973 Challenger Power Disc/Drum car. 383 of unknown origin, pulling only 11 inches of vacuum at idle. I'm looking at complete kits to avoid searching/making items to adapt to my specific needs. What kit did you use? Would you use the same one...

That is a great look! Any clearance issues? Is your car riding on stock suspension? What are the Year One part numbers?

@moparroy - thanks for the tips. I called Inline tube about their valves and was told they no longer carried a valve for my application. That decided it for me - I'll try the Master Power Brakes VL3360K universal kit. I spoke with them and gained some confidence that it will work just fine...

I looked into that too. Got all the info from them, but have not been able to get the switch out of my rusted KH89410 valve. So thinking of going new for this item. Thanks, Ray

Hey Gripper. I'm interested to know more about your install. Pictures of the installation and information on where to purchase the valve you used would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Ray

Hey pschlosser. This valve was also used on some B-Body cars. I posted the same question on the B-Body forum and got several replies. Here is a link to that post so you can follow along there too...

Hello All, I need to replace the Combination valve (Kelsey Hayes KH 89410) on my '73 Challenger. Power brakes. Disc up front. Drum in back. 1.031" bore master cylinder. Planning on installing this one from Master Power Brakes: VL3360K Anyone have experience with this valve? Or a better one to...

@MoparCarGuy - thanks for the links. I had looked into the belts from XV Racing a while ago, but never pulled the trigger on the purchase. They are now showing as sold out. Good to know these are available at Weso. Anyone else have a set of belts to recommend? I'm more interested in safety than...

@heminut can you provide details on what you installed? I'm looking to do the same.

@Gold Duster, what do you plan to install? NOS, reproductions or something modern? Please let us know.

I'll take the lightbar. PM sent.

Adding a side note: hitting the rev limiter for the first time is an awesome, somewhat terrifying, yet highly recommended experience :-)

I installed Don Gould's HRR688 Ignition Box W/Coil (FBO Ignition - Home of the HRR688) and now want to delete the unused ballast resistor and cleanup the left-over wiring. This car has obviously been through a few ignition changes and there are several splices that need to be corrected. Does...
