Fellas, I can't remember if I asked this question before... as for power brake booster and master cylinder, at the local auto parts store I have a choice of Midland or Bendix.

Here are the differences:
Midland type with clamp band w/o core 241.00
Bendix type w/out clamp band w/o core 195.00

Obviously I would like to save the 46 bucks, but is there an advantage to the Midland? Anyone know the difference? As always, thanks

The Midland booster is longer and I believe what your car came with if that's important to you. The Bendix is shorter and more modern of a unit. Both will perform fine.
