  • Brakes: Bendix Remote Power Booster

    I have a Bendix remote power brake booster that I'm trying to hook up and I need some info.

    This is on my '53 Chevy (But I've always loved Studebakers--honest!!) Anyway, my present Master Cylinder is the normal '53 Chevy, non-power master cylinder, with a 7/8ths bore. Chevy also used the same Bendix remote booster in '53 as an option.

    My master cylinder has a port which comes off the front of it, and a brass fitting is screwed to that port, which divides the out-flow of brake fluid into two channels--one slightly larger than the other one. So when I'm hooking up the Bendix remote, do I just plug the smaller out-flow channel on that brass fitting, and run the brake fluid straight to the "in" port on the Bendix remote booster? Or? Do I do something different? Blocking that smaller port and using the larger one to feed the Bendix is the only way right now I see to hook it up. Can anybody help? Thanks!
