Adding Power Brakes to a '67

[Richard J.]

Hi Can anyone tell me what all must be done to add power brakes to a 1967 Corvette. Is there a differant backet that supports the brake pedal or do the studs that hold the master cylinder come out? I don't need a lot of detail, with the exception of the direction for the rivots that hold the nut plate. I would also like a list of what needs to be changed. Kind regards to all, Rick

Rick:

The best way to go about such a change, would be to refer to the Assembly Manual for your 1967 Corvette. Note the part numbers listed within the "base" assembly and compare them to those appearing in the OPTIONS section, power brakes.

1967 was the first year that a dual circuit hydraulic system was used for Corvettes, and so, I believe that the master cylinder will be the same for both applications.
