That's something I should mentioned from the beginning. The manifold fitting is only a minor detail as everything else will work.
The only problem I have now is all my items in my cart at Mac's disappeared nor can I log into my account despite changing the password each time.

Yes, the part I need would be for a 57 since I'm using a 57 carb and manifold.


w00t



... uh-oh ...

I did not catch that upgrade. Most of the info I have supplied is for a '56.

I have one those original boosters.  It came on my '56 CV.  The brake efforts were high.  So I assume it needed a rebuild.  I removed it and replaced it with a firewall mounted booster with modern front/rear master cylinder.  Now the brake efforts are much better and it will be a lot easier to upgrade to front disc brakes.  If anyone is interested in that old booster give me a email at jackgr at AOL dot com and we can work something out.  The booster is in Michigan.

Yes I could read view 9. The parts list was difficult to read.

Kultulz, do you have a better resolution copy of the installation diagram?


No, wish I did. I stumbled across that one on GOOGLE. Maybe print it out it will be larger? Were you able to read VIEW 9?

The fitting you are showing is for a 1957.

They are using the original Ford #. 354447-S. Same # Tee-bird has. Macs don't have One?

Casco has this part for $35.65. http://www.classictbird.com/Connecting-Block-Power_Brake-Manifold-57-1-Per-car/productinfo/354447CS/
They list some part numbers but they're probably they're own number.

That looks like 2 Parts not One. Is Part(s) #'s not shown in Illustration?

This is the part I'm looking for. I'm not sure of the part number.
Connecting Block - Power/Brake - Manifold 57 - 1 Per car

Kultulz, do you have a better resolution copy of the installation diagram? If you're not able to post it, could PM it to me or I could PM you my email.

You want some more aggravation?

This is a INSTRUCTION SHEET from a 1956 BOOSTER INSTALL KIT. VIEW 9 shows going from a two port fitting for a three port (booster - wipers - dual adv dist canister)  Much varies on how the engine was assembled OEM and what accessories the car came through with.

Parts Catalog Illustrations are not exact copies of ENGINEERING DRAWINGS. They are a culmination of similar years/assemblies. They show just enough so that the PARTS DUDE can find his/her/it/mutant's way in the TEXT.
