Brake Booster...

This may be a stupid question but are brake boosters for 2nd gens universal? I mean could I put one from an 87 TII in my 87 N/A or could I put one from a 4 lug into a 5 lug. Also my interior reaks of gas while the car is running any idea of what that could be? The previous owner told me there is a hair-line crack in the gas tank but would that cause it to smell that bad? Thanks.

I'm not driving it... it has no brakes... I just start it up every once and a while and after sitting there for a few mins it starts to smell like gas. If it is what you say how would I check that?

Edit: oh and the crack is on the very top of the tank.

If the tank had a leak it would smell like gas all the time.......... Smell around the engine compartment, see if the smell is there too.....
