Re: Power brake and standard trans.

Decision time. There have been several people who have installed a modern system using various configurations. Is there any interest if I continue this exercise in doing it another way in the original spot? The way this is made, it provides a ratio of about 3.5:1, can be adjusted a bit & SHOULD work with older pedals and maybe with standard shift.
I've proven the concept to myself which was the main reason for the attempt, and am reasonably certain with the ratio, it will work at least as well as the conversions that require major pedal changes. Eliminating that really different pedal look & placement was the main factor here. A couple of things will be changed to simplify build if I do another.
Currently, am undecided if it's worth getting supplies and building another to document and then having it professionally welded. If no one wants the info, for my own use if I decide to go this way instead of BTV, just cleanup and a professional weld will work.
