The Avalon booster bolts onto the firewall and u just got do a little mod on the pedal side clevis pin mounting.

Search amsmike's threads on here, he did a writeup on swapping to a normal vac booster using Avalon parts.

Good luck, keep posting up some pics.

Ok so... I had a 2J ready for this car... But I just leakdown tested it and the head is warped pretty good. Soooo I have to send that to the machine shop.

No cool updates.... Haven't really had much time to work on it.



Trying to figure out how to get this car working efficiently.


Pulled the pans and checked the bearings..
