I have the SSBC front disk brakes on a 65 with a manual transmission. As such I have not been able to run a power brake booster as a result of the manual transmission linkage. I was researching and going to go with a remote power booster when via alot of phone calls came upon these guys. http://www.abspowerbrake.com/AbsCatalogPag063.html (see part number 9778, last on page) Funny thing is after searching the archives no body seems to be running this assembly. Does anybody have any experiance with ABS Power Brake company? It seems alot of 2nd tier suppliers are selling the product. Steve ------------------

I live about 3/4 of a mile from ABS, and have used them for my '46 Ford PU's front disc brakes, and my brothers has used them for his '62 Falcon. They are a good group of guys to buy from. They do a lot of a there, they have a shop that is full of classics they are working on. I would recommend them, they know what they are doing and they do all work in house right here in their shop in Orange.------------------

They've done two of my cars (hydroboost for my '68 Chevelle and rear brakes for my '66 Mustang). They are good. I would use them again.
