I also was able to grab a hydroboost system from a local junkyard for $100 so while waiting for other things to come in I figured I would at least get it installed.
I'll be eliminating the combination valve and RWAL valve and running a proportioning valve to adjust the rear brakes.
I used the existing backing plate with the standoff mount on the hydroboost to get it positioned in the engine bay but ran into a couple snags.
I then adjusted the bracket, to adjust it down. It brought it down in the engine bay, but what I should have done is referenced my old build thread. This has the nitrogen cylinder right next to the intake so it will be tough to get that boot in. The last time I did this made a bracket that keeps it close to the firewall.
After doing all that I decided to do this lol. Make some new brackets to bring the booster right to the firewall.
I think the custom fabricated bracket will come out looking a lot cleaner anyhow.
