Booster upgrade
So I have a 67f100 2wd. I did the front disc conversion. The drivetrain is a 429/c6 combo. Now I am wondering if it would make any difference using a brake booster from a more heavy duty truck (Like a 250,350) or rebuild/replace the one I have for the f100. Is there any advantage or disadvantage?

I dont particularly know about the boosters from those years, but if you get a newer booster from an F-350 and fit it to what you have (may as well get the master cylinder as well) via pedal swaps, mods or what have you, you will wind up with a fairly stout dual diaphram setup. It's a smaller diameter, but will add about 1/3 more pedal power to what's there.
