I got a hydroboost off of a 96 GMC diesel, unfortunately the junk yard I got it from was a ripoff at 100$, you can find them anywhere from 15$ on up, saw a nice one on e-bay for 40$ recently, any late 80's on up should work, if appropriately modified.

Got mine from a fellow(trustworthy) forum member here. $75 shipped to my door. Off of an 02 GM Truck. Very minor mods to the plate.
