Power break question

[Stonekij31]

Throwing this out to the experts…
I purchased a brake booster through Summit for my Volare. Evidentially the booster is specific to an a-body, not an f-body. Below are the boosters I’m considering. Two questions:
1. Which booster do you suggest?
2. Will the booster pushrod connect directly to my brake pedal? Or do I need the swivel linkage?

78 was the last year for the 4 bolt master I`m pretty sure. F bodies came with both the Midland Ross and Bendix style boosters in those years. They should interchange so I would think whatever you choose would be fine if it is for your application. The linkage is not on the boosters.

You will need the correct firewall plate and the linkage to the pedal for power brakes. The booster rod will not connect directly to the pedal.

Any idea where the linkage would be available? I can only find for e-bodies

Used is your only option. Has to be from an FMJ.

Car-part junkyard search
Car-Part.com - Used Auto Parts Market

Check with local yards not listed there to see if they have an FMJ. Some old school mopar yards don't list there or have their own sites

Facebook marketplace/craigslist/eBay for parts cars, you'll see listing stating "tell me what you need" etc.
