Mine works great. Ithink I paid about 70 for mine. They install between the master cylinder and the distribution block. Install it on the front master cylinder line this is the one for the front brakes

I just installed this last month. I put in a Hurst Roll control. Easy install. If you have manual brakes, all you have to do is remove the front line form the master Cylinder to the proportion block. Then put the line lock solenoid in its place. I attached mine to the drivers fender side. Don't put teflon tape on the burled line connections but do on the extension or conversion ones.
I got the hurst from Summit with the install kit. You don't have to get the install kit if you want to go thru parts at the Auto store though, and find the correct ones. Ground it in the engine compartment somewhere and run the Hot wire thru the firewall grommet. Put switch and or light in ashtray is a good place. Hurts has a shifter mounted switch which is where I put it.. Easy, 2 hours install.

Do the fittings carefully and NO leaks.

6-8 inch piece of flare tubing with threaded ends. Brass straight and brass 90 degree adapter to TCI roll control. Pull the front brake line off the master cylinder and it screws into the 90 degree fitting. No cutting or flaring. Just bleed the brake s and hook your push button to 12 volts.

Then put on some POOPIE tires and practice. :jester

I was watching a show on TV about burn out contest (who can get the most smoke). They were say to power brake a manual transmission, rev it to 2500 dump the clutch and press the brake with your left foot and push the gas petal all the way down.

I've never did a power brake with a manual before and they were doing it on water too.
