Or should I just use the plastic reservoir and 90 proportioning valve on the 82 booster?

I cures the problems, instant cure on my vette, as I proved by never disconnecting the master cyl...simply moved forward off the mount, and slipped on the HB....instant cure for shitty brakes....in fact it was a large bore truck m/c and so had to change it for stock bore, so went aluminum aftermarket to get SOME feel back to the brakes....
:rofl:

I have always liked the brakes on my 82 never had a problem with them. But will be putting 1990 J55 brakes on the car.

Hey, if you like the feel, fine, just that no matter WTF I did my '72 here was a shadow of any other car, which I was used to...A body, B body, F body, Mopar, Van, Ford, Jap, my '72 NEVER had even 1/2 the pedal confidence of them all....all I can say is my observations....on my car...I tore the booster apart after a week or so use with the HB, just to know what was what...and could find NO defect in the booster, no leaks, no rust, nothing....
only thing I can do is write it off to bad design....and DAmoroso down the road agrees with me....seems all the HB users in sharks DO.....
:bump::nuts:
I dunno man, never had either car on a track other than autocross and maybe a dragstrip pass or two, years ago....uneventful.....did activate the ABS on the '87 once on the way to dinner, with the top down to boot....;-)))
i'ts not like the '72 couldn't stop, just that it stopped with the pedal almost on the floor, gave me the BAD feeling, ....
