    Alternative Brake booster setup

    I kinda didnt want to cut my frame up that much so i attempted a new way to approach the problem because i know in the future i will invest in a wilwood/tilton pedal assembly

    So here are some pictures of the process hopefully i finish up this weekend on the trial and error setup, please excuse all the piping foam i recieved the car like that i think a few previous owners decades ago decided it was best to fill up the steering hole with piping foam rather than order a new rubber seal, didnt find out til i removed the engine and pedal cover

    This is how i decided to cut my e34 v8 bracket




    I cut the little tab on top because i am actually mounting it inside reversed so it wouldnt stick out where the v8 would be

    Here are some pictures of the clearance inside the car... stupid foam crap...

    lever fully depressed


    Lever all the way up

    no worries it clears the throttle bracket if your wondering..

    Reverse mounted


    the little hole i made for the rod


    and the rod doesnt need to be shortened/extended it reaches where i was gonna put the booster


    Ill finish it up later this weekend

    Mounted the booster without cutting it shorter or making a step stool



    this is to show the hood clearance



    and hood closes nicely


    the only thing im left with is where to mount the reservoir

    But other than that this is just an option that you can choose to do, im just showing you what i decided to proceed with
