Re: DO NOT TRUST BTV

I would also be interested in the details of this installation as I want to ultimately replace my BTV with something more modern.
I'm still having problems trying to source parts for the vacuum piston.
Has anyone checked out the bolt in replacement advertised for the BTV by abspowerbrakes it's in the 55-57 Chevy section of their catalogue part PB-377974...? I'm dubious if it would fit in a 55-56 Packard as it's a 7'' booster and suspect it also might be tight under the steering column...? and if it did fit maybe unable to remove the filler top.
I emailed them for a suggested replacement but so far no reply.

Dave.
