Does anyone know of a power brake booster rebuild kit. Mine seems to operate fine, but has been sitting on the car for 20 years not in use. I have installed rear disc brakes also, can I still use the original booster? Do I have to change the distribution valve?

Thanks

Yeah, looks like it is pressed together then twisted to keep in place, are they just cheap to replace. I think I remember something lik $300 for a new one thru stainless steel brakes. they also have the brake "manifold" (right word?). probably should just check out the web sight. But every time I get on a sight with mustang parts I go shoppin!!!
