My 79 Chevy 1 ton had factory hydroboost. Owned that truck for about 25 years, several cross country trips pulling trailers, it never let me down, loved the brakes. I never had to touch the hydroboost system on that truck. Even on a truck with front disc and rear drum that scaled 5300 lbs that thing would stop on a dime.

Adapting them to a car to me is the ultimate if you want stopping power.
