    Brake booster not available?

    Several show it, but when I tried adding it to cart, or ordering it it's unavailable. Then they say they can't order it.

    Brake booster not available?

    The brake booster is bad on my 77ish, so I tried NAPA, O'Reillys, Rock Auto, Advanced, and none of them seem to be able to get the booster for dual piston brakes. Any ideas what else would work? What about something from a hot rod shop?

    Headliners

    Thanks for the reply's. The MDF looks like a good alternative and cheap enough to try it without guilt! ;)

    oil viscosity question

    I'm of the opinion that the modern synthetics are amazing and unless you have leaks, I think now that you've broken it in, it would be the perfect time to switch to a full synthetic. I usually run AmsOil now (became a dealer) but there are a few that rate pretty high.

    Took my old beast elk hunting for a couple weeks. First real work it's done in a long while. It started out my son's project, wound up mine. It's been a tinker toy for a while. It was fun getting it out in the mountains. Seemed appropriate.
