Give your second-generation F-Body a more modern, confidence-inspiring brake pedal feel with the Detroit Speed Brake Booster & Master Cylinder Kit. Part number 050106DS is engineered specifically for 1970-1981 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird applications, combining the major power brake components into a matched, direct bolt-on package. Detroit Speed pairs a compact 9 inch dual-diaphragm brake booster with a 1 inch bore aluminum master cylinder and reservoir to deliver the late-model performance pedal feel these classic muscle cars deserve.
Detroit Speed designed 050106DS to work with factory or aftermarket brake systems, making it a versatile choice for restorations, street machines, pro-touring cars, and other performance builds. The kit includes the brake booster, cast-aluminum master cylinder with reservoir, mounting bracket, and required master cylinder fittings. The system requires a minimum of 10-12 inches of mercury engine vacuum, so available vacuum should be confirmed before installation, particularly on engines running aggressive camshaft combinations.
