The factory actually offered a dealer-installed power booster package for exactly this conversion. While that's no longer available, the conversion is easy. You just need the booster and a correct master cylinder. You should be able to rebend your current hydraulic lines to match the new location of the M/C, or you can buy new prebent lines from several sources. Unlike my friend's Mustang (FOUR different brake pedals: drum or disk, manual or power
), the GM brake pedals are all the same and have two holes for the pushrod clevis, the upper one for manual and the lower one for power. This is a complete bolt-in that can easily be done in a Saturday.
