Hmmm - got some good news, and I've got some bad news :confused:
The online store has not yet receieved a much needed products page update to reflect our many, many NEW! part numbers and fitments. Should be updated by this weekend (we hope) along with a revised FAQ section.

Good News: everything you need is in the kit except for ps fluid and labors.
Good News: yes - you can run the master cylinder currently on your vehicle

Bad News: The Level I systems have been discontinued due to their lack of an accumulator, which would cause your brakes to go "manual" the minute an engine stall occurs. The models equipped with accumulators store up reserve assist to handle these situations properly. The Level I was also based on an earlier design which just couldn't hold a candle to the newer design.

So, Level II -retailing for $495 is now the base model, utilizing a high quality mid '90's design remanufactured hydraulic assist unit.
The Level III is $595, boasting a Brand New 2003 assist unit, with some design refinements. Don't forget to subtract 10% if you are a verifiable CF member!

Overall, the system is indeed a direct bolt in requiring no other mods be performed simultaneously. Most customers report 2-4 hours of installation time.

More Good News: All systems now come standard with a one year unlimited mileage warranty against defects in materials and workmanship and, get this: A REAL satisfaction guaranteeed or your money back policy! :flag

You guys are just the greatest - to think we waited almost a year to sign up!? Speaking with some of you on the telephone has also been an absolute pleasure, as we've found the general CF member IMO carries themselves as a "straight shootin, no BSin, well educated, 80W90 in the veins, total gearhead"! :cool:

Next time there is a CF event in the Detroit area, I'm going to have to attend, to meet some of you in person for some :cheers: and :lol:

Paul,

I installed my Hydroboost unit yesterday. It looks awesome. I have to heat the number one header tube and bend it in so that my Steeroids power rack and pinion fits in before I mount the master cylinder.

If you'd like to meet a lot of Corvette lovers, you should come to the 50th Anniversary of the Corvette Celebration in Nashville and Bowling Green in late June. It will be an experience you would never forget.

I'd love to give you a ride in my car.

I feel just about obligated to do that! The 50th Anniversary Celebration should be one heckuva get together. :cheers:

Should I bring a change of undergarments for the ride in your car!? :smash:
