2 bolts to hold a brake booster??

I got back from the local yard today with a 1987 r/k20 3/4ton brake booster (Disc/Drum) I noticed that the middle hole line up exactly with the original holes from my Dum/Drum non-power master cylinder. Is 2 holes enough to hold the booster/MC or should I drill out the other four and use all 6?

I'm using that same booster, and I used all 6 bolts. I wouldn't trust only 2.

yup bolt up at least 4...I wouldn't trust two. If you don't want to drill holes for the other bolts get a new booster and CPT Fab's bracket.

If you're only gonna use 4 bolts drill the top 2, they're a whole lot easier to acess than the bottom 2.
