What did you do for the hydrobooster? Did you make the dodge one work on the Chevy cab? Thanks

Yes I used the Dodge Hydro and Clutch master , I had to modify the fire wall mount, as-well as build a clutch pedal assembly. Also delete the ABS pump with a 3 port Willwood proportioning valve.

Do you think it would be easier to do the body swap or to just drop the 12v into the Chevy

Because I’ve heard that they sell a motor and trans mount conversion from the 5.7 to a 12v but I have no idea where I would find that kit
