I have been looking into hydroboost brake systems trying to figure out some particulars and can't seem to get much info on pump requirements as far as pressure and such. I am building a 1972 Mercedes and an planning out a lot of things. I can't seem to figure out what kind of additional requirements a hydroboost system will add to a PS system. Anyone have any knowledge on this?
I don't know much about the abilities of the Mercedes pump, but I am not worried not opposed to putting a different pump on the car. There are also suspension pumps and such I can easily get to work.
I am using a Mercedes V8 and that will not change. Aside from not wanting to use a vacuum booster, I also want to move the hydro boost inside the cab. I have a buddy that did this on a rock crawler using a lever system and it works well. Any reason why levers might be bad for a raceish car? Other than more bits to fail.
Thanks for any info.
