ok if i choose not to use the bracket for the 73-87 booster which spaces the booster out from the firewall what is required.

Re: power brakes in a 64
i used the master booster and prop valve from an 85. then just get a lot of tubing, a good bender and double flare tool and have at it. oh and you will have to lengthen the push rod but only like 1.5 inches.

Re: power brakes in a 64
The only way I know of to get the booster and master closer to the firewall is to use a different booster. The '73-'87 boosters have the brackets riveted to the booster. This is one of the reasons I designed my booster bracket years ago. I didn't like how far the booster was from the firewall, I didn't like the looks of those brackets and I did not want to drill more holes in the firewall. The only think you would need to buy besides my booster bracket, is a booster from either a S10, or '88-'98 full sized truck. Those are fairly easy to find in the wrecking yards.
