Here is my 66 Valiant, I've measured and I don't think my manual dual master cylinder will be a problem on the early cars 63-66.

Using, no. But then my slant won't be going in an A -body anyway. We did however stick my 4 bbl manifold under the hood of Dadtruck's pickup. It looked close but looked like it would work. Dadtruck ordered his 2 bbl version and I would guess eyeballed it many times since. I would pm him and ask for his opinion. |

That site is a bit busy ain't it? I'm thinking of just removing the p/b set up and going to manual disc all around. That is if it doesn't fit with the booster. |

I like the 390 and this manifold package. It has better throttle response than the Clifford 4 bbl manifold I have used. The electric choke works fine, I had to buy a auto transmission adapter lever and I used a Locar AT kickdown. Over all it seams fine. |

Rob, Nice install! Got any pictures of the transmission hookup? What kind of vacuum readings are you seeing at idle and at cruise? Do you feel a big difference in power? What rear-end ratio? What is the difference in mileage? |

Sorry no pictures of the transmission side of the kickdown. I run about 19" vacuum at idle neutral and about 15/16 in gear at about 600 rpm? Power seams good but its hard to compare because I used to have a turbo. There are 3.55 gears in the rear end. I haven't checked the millage yet but it seams like it will be good with this manifold. |
