    Quick numbers question not covered in the chassis manual.

    I'm looking at installing either a 9" slimline booster/ master cylinder
    (900psi, 1200 psi max)

    ..or

    a 8" dual diaphragm booster/master cylinder (1000 psi/1400 psi max)

    (Both from Master Power Brakes)

    Both are good, but I'm wondering how these numbers compare to a properly operating 11" original-style booster.

    I like the idea of a smaller, more ergonomic unit, ommission of the hold-off valve as it is incorporated into the MP combo valve, and it's all great quality stuff......but I do not want to compromise too much in the way of braking... and I'm not sure what the pressure would be on the 11" unit for comparison purposes.

    Thanks..again!
