What is everyone using if they do not have the original Brake Booster setup for the 70 B-body?

One of those crappy gold China one- size- fits all pieces of ****?? :rofl:

Get the dual bendix. Kern has tons of data on that. Good stuff.
 
Pirate Jack booster master combo works great and looks pretty good.
Installed one of these on the Road Runner and works and looks great.
This is the one I installed.

I went with the Dr Diff booster, though I suspect that he just buys them through the same manufacturer as Pirate Jack.
Dual diaphragm, low gloss black in color. I've installed 2 of them, both cars brake quite well now.
 
I installed the Pirate Jack booster kit with power brake firewall plate. My Coronet has a stock cam and adequate vacuum for power brakes. However, my Cuda has low vacuum and did not stop well with the power brake booster.

Lesson learned: check engine vacuum first. You can add a loud or quiet vacuum pump if your engine vacuum is too low by itself. You pay a lot more for the quiet one.

I just went to manual front disc brakes on the Cuda.

THis is the reason I installed the Pirate Jack setup. The Gold colored booster and master setup from Right Stuff Detailing failed with only about 200 actual driving miles on it. And its the second one that failed another one in the 71 I installed lasted about the same time.
AVOID THESE.
 
Junkyard K-car boosters and M-body masters on all of mine.
