Power/Non Power Brakes

Power/Non Power Brakes
Was referencing some information on 442.com about authentication regarding a 1970 442....they said if it is a 4-speed it should not have power brakes. Now if I remember right, that is only for the W-30 cars due to the cam not being able to produce enough vacuum for power brakes.....I have seen several '70 442's with power brakes. Am I remembering correctly? Thanks in advance, my '70 has a lot of documentation and the correct vin so this was just a bit confusing.....

Welcome to the site Scott! What part of the PNW are you in? I have to admit on both my 1969 and 1970 I installed power disc brakes and power steering as I considered both as daily drivers. I don't have Popeye forearms and in a panic braking situation I really like power disc brakes. Although I saved the correct parts, they're hidden in the back of my garage in case I decide to return the cars back to original some day.
