Booster looks like it was modified into Hemi bolt pattern.
Actuator looks like an original.
Also years ago a friend had some Actuators made via water jet. Firewall mounting holes were off by a 1/4ā€. Too small.
Rest of brackets are correct. Some minor pitting on booster.
So WIW.
Thanks for the help.

Got a friend near Chicago that is looking for a power brake set-up for an E-Body, will this work? shruggy


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

that actuator is not original and the booster has been modified and looks to be a b-body booster also no spacers for bracket
IMO.

Pulled packing material out of box. Was wrapping back up and found spacers, nuts and washers.
Also a sheet from The Ram Man
Booster will work for B&E Body

B and E body brackets are different. What you have is a cobbled together mess from the rammer man. I know people who had experience with his booster conversation and they were very unhappy. I had an original E body one that I sold with booster and linkage. If I was going to install a hemi in a car, Iā€™d use the repop kit from DoctorDiff with the booster and brackets.

The brackets are not different B and E, just the lever that attaches to the petal is.

Correct. I should have been more specific. The ASSEMBLY is different between the two body styles. The lever is different and so is the length of the rod that attaches to the pedal.
