its a common mod, almost completely bolt on, the only reason you dont use the 4th gen booster is its formed a little different and it wont clear something, or so im told.

its the ls1 master and pushrod, like i said i have brakes, so the piston is moving, but only a little before something binds.
i noticed that the bracket for the propvalve was hitting the booster can, maybe causing a misalignment or something, so i packed it off a little and still nothing


i really dont want to do it, but i may pull the master completely out of the car and see if i can move the piston manually on the bench, and if i do that im probably going to ditch the prop valve and use an adjustable one for just the rear.
