Someone asked over the weekend why I removed the hood to get the
booster/master cylinder in.

When I
did this years ago, I got a full setup from a donor car, with the spindles,
rotors, and calipers from a '79 F-Body and the master cylinder (Booster since
this was a power conversion), and proportioning valve from (I think) a '72
