So am picking up a 79 sr5 2wd from a friend of mine for $800 pretty much stock . My question is, the master cylinder and the booster need to be replaced since the brakes are soft and the engine dies when the brake peddal is pressed, does any know of booster and master cylinder that i could use from a later model truck or car. ( trying to get one from pick-a-part for now) or do i need to get a stock replacement?.

Also planning on a 32/36 weber and header for now and pobrably a swap later on. Any other suggestions?

but first things first!
Thanks

 

Just pick up a new one from the parts store, they're not that expensive and you'll have a warranty

 

Am probably just going to do that, just wanted to know if there is one beter than the stock one that i could bolt on

 

not sure about the booster, but you can get a 4runner v6(89-95) master that is 1" bore as opposed to factory 4 cylinder is 7/8ths

 

Can you help me out, I'm putting together my 78 and i need to know where a few vacuum hoses go. Id appreciate if you can text me and send me pics of the vacuum lines? 5597074781
