Hydroboost unit dimensions ?

[rustytoolss]

Does anyone have some dimensions of a GM style Hydroboost brake unit ? Just want to get an idea if one might fit on my A100. The master cylinder on an A100 is mounted under the floor pan (backwords). Not much room between the frame and the floor pan.

Mine is about 6.5 inches from mount to mc. Hope this helps. This is not in an a-body...

Thanks, you tell me the aprox width of the unit including the acumalator can ? As if you were looking at it from above.

Don't let the accumulator can scare you. These can be clocked in any direction to make them work.

OK, But I could use the aprox thickness (diameter if you would call it that) of the unit with the accumulator.

thought they all had accumulator cans ? what did yours come off of ? Without the can, it may be a better fit for me.

I got it used from a diesel IH Scout. Contact Van at Vanco power brake systems (vancopbs.com i think). Super knowledgeable guy. He was real helpful to me, even tho i didn't buy anything from him.
