    It's so easy to convert to hydroboost. it will hold at idle with no vaccumn in engine. need p/s pump, new p/s lines and may need a different brake pedals. You will love that you just tap the pedal to complete stop.

    DBRODS does these conversions. Kurt had this setup on his GMC.

    All you guys need is a pump and two high pressure line and then some bulk vaccumn hose for the return. maybe a different pedal. Or get the vin off of a 2500 and order parts for that vehicle. It all bolts in and works. You may find that the booster bolt pattern is different then your firewall. You can remove one of the studs or drill a new hole in the firewall.
