Firewall mounted Brake MC

I recently ordered a Firewall mount MC and booster with pedal assy, but was badly let down by the supplier. I ordered it in July/August and after chasing them many times as they said it had been shipped I now find it never was as it was not in stock and have now been told it wont be until December.

So my question is, does anyone have any recomendations for suppliers. I was thinking of getting a stainless booster too as they dont seem to be to much more expensive and will then look good and last too.

Thanks
Lee

E-mail is classicperform.com.

I hope they were not the ones you had a bad experience with.

I contacted Dean at Hot Rods USA and bought a stainless booster and a chrome MC. The pedal I'm using is a Lokar. Dean is knowledgable and quick turn around on all parts I have bought through him.

I bought my pedal/booster/master combo on EBAY for $169 I think.

I replaced the master with one of the new MCVs from CPP.. with integrated prop valve. (I have a temp chrome one mounted if you look in my gallery, the CPP one took an extra 5 months to get here and I wanted to drive it around the block!..)..

MP brakes are good people and the actual manufacturers. Unfortunately some ebayers are not stocking dealers and order after the sale. They may also hold the order until they sell a certain # to meet the supplier's minimum order to receive a dealer's discount.
That said I did buy my SS booster on ebay but was lucky.

I would rather not say who it was, I may have just been unlucky so dont really want to bad mouth them. If you want to drop me a PM and let me know who you have ordered from then I will let you know if it was the same company.

If you gotta have one on the FW, then it should at least be SS. Jag
