What the hell does how many posts have got anything to do with helping, or insulting new people like us? No offense molehill, but what the hell does his knowledge, or lack thereof, have anything to do with most posts. I think Ill start a thread asking for pics of engine bay for anyone with more than 100 posts, who can compare with this vision of loveliness.

Haven't we ALL heard this
I was reading somewhere...that some race cars do not run a booster. Saying it gives better feel.
But they do not have a booster period. They just don't undo the vacuum tap.

I emailed Davies Craig twice asking for their side of the story but they didn't have the courtesy to reply...

But since I have bought it, I will test it and se if it works. I will however buy another one to have in reserve just incase... just donīt like that plastic feeling.

OK, I have been scanning through looking for an answer to my question, and came across this post again. Dog is off the hooch right now, so I have just one question? What did you finally do with the brake booster line? Also, like previously stated, nice f-king engine bay. When its up and running, the sun shines in December in California, come on out and make mine purty.
PEACE THE DOG p.s. yes, I am a jerk, but I can live with that. SORRY!!

I removed the boost line, together with the brake disks, steering wheel, drivetrain and the big "thing" in the engine bay. The "thing" kinda looks like a big hamburger laying on the side... but itīs alot bigger and attached to the gearbox.
Of course I left it as i is! I think being able to stop is a pretty good idea...
I would love to come to California in December, the snow is laying thick here in Sweden then! But the transportation of the car over the sea, just for a cruise in the Californian sun is a little bit to much trouble ;P

Glad to see you are still here. American humor is complicated, like these f-kin cars. Just disconnect the driveshaft from the rear-end, drop down to 13 degrees, hold there with wire and duct tape, put propeller on end of shaft, tape the tires to two, not one, two surfboards, fill up with gas, and I'll have the meatballs ready when you arrive. Glad to see you have not lost your sense of humor.
PEACE THE DOG
