hydroboost question

While at the wrecking yard today, I found a 82 1/2 diesel with all of the brake parts I need (rotors, calipers). I noticed the truck has a powerboost system on it. Since I have a pretty big cam in my truck, I thought I might as well grab the hydro system while I'm at it. Well of course I didnt have a big enough allen wrench to get the calipers off and it was all muddy under the truck anyway, so I will go back next week for the parts. My question is what should I grab off the truck for the hydroboost? I know I will get the MC and booster that bolts to the firewall. Should I get the pump and lines and brackets, or is that overkill? First I will check my vacuum to see if I even need all of this gear. I'm leaning towards getting the stuff because I can get the whole system cheaper than I can get the vacuum booster and MC. I have never worked on the hydro system before so it seems a little intimidating.
