Packard Forum Index » V-8 (1955-56)

I have been perusing the Project Blogs and Forums, and couldn't find an answer or opinion on this.
Has anyone considered, or tried, using a Power Brake upgrade using the MC/Booster Combo with Swing Pedal? AS an example, something dexigned like this:
ebay.com/itm/7-DUAL-Power-Brake-Booster- ... X%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
or
ebay.com/itm/Universal-Under-Dash-Pedal- ... 7675&_trksid=p2047675.c100752.m1982
If this would work, I understand having to lose the fresh air duct on the drivers side, and the need to reinforce the firewall in that area, but it seems like this would be a feasible way to upgrade to a dual MC without having to build or modify the brake pedal.
TIA,
John

interesting, but, be careful of "easy install" and "universal" claims.

That is always something to consider. I was even thinking of trying to get a Corvette assembly from a junk yard to try for fitment. Unfortunately, the dashboard is out of my car so I can't take any measurements to see if the specs match up, so I was hoping one, or more, members might have considered this solution already. I'm also concerned that the MC size might not be enough for the 4 wheel drum brakes on a vehicle as heavy as a 55 Constellation.
