HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! Convert to hydraulics? HA HA.  That was a joke
right:-)?

Not really necessary to even have the pump.  I have an 84 4kq and if the
pump goes out in that it is not getting a new one.  I will just install a
canister in line with the booster that will store enough vacuum for 100
stops.  Currently there are 3 4ktq's running in my neighborhood with the
canisters and not one of them has lost brake assistance.  This includes
approx 10 track days.  I have even tried to use it up and could not, even
with smoking my Porterfeild r compound's.  Watch a boost needle on a turbo
car sometime and you will see there is plenty of time spent in vacuum.

Still looking for any other places to call for rally Euro lights.
