Dayclona is right. I forgot about the wagon drum brake application. I wonder if it gives more stopping force or less pedal effort for stopping force due to the dual diaphragms?

Granted, I havent driven a car like mine with the midland ross booster, but my 69 charger that has the bendix disc brakes if you hit the pedal too hard, you'll end up going through the windshield! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my brakes! Wish the ones in my 07 F150 were this good!

wonder if the midland & ross requires more vacuum to opperate as opposed to the bendix ? just throwing a few ideas out there !! like i mentioned bendix on hemi but wedge motored 68 -70 b bodies midland & ross !! & bendix on a hemi car , thinking giving better stopping power with less vacuum being generated with a hemi motor due to cam , maybe  never seen a roadrunner or charger with a wedge & powr drums with a bendix booster !! wonder why just some thoughts guys , thanks again for all your imput & feed back

I've run the Midlands and Bendix boosters on wedge and HEMI cars with "big" (large dur.) cams, really doesn't matter as to the booster used, ...vacumm supply is key, generally 10" of vac minimum is fine for a manual car, as the engine recovers vacumm for the booster when you clutch to engage the brakes at low speed operation, the same engine set up with an automatic generally cannot substain repeated braking at low speed operation, which usually requires the need for a reserve canister in the system, or in worst cases, a vacumm pump
