Has anyone got a template which to put on the firewall to drill out the new 4 holes to mount the booster. Have tried but didn't get it quite right and have buggered the booster.
If there is anyone out there you are my only hope! Robert |

You could use a series 2/3 pedal box and take a template off that.

did that, thanks for the help. Did you do this conversion and have trouble with the booster hitting one of the bolts on the steering column.

No I haven't done this but I found out the difference when using a series 1 pedal box in a series 3 for my manual conversion. I ended up drilling the holes I need in the pedal box and it was all good
 I hope you can get around the bolt hitting the steering column.

the bolt wasn't hitting the sterring column but the body of the brake booster. Just got it all together after all the mucking around.
 I just hope the way my brakes felt without changing the booster and master cylinder is not indicitave of this conversion, mine were downright dangerous. Thanks for help.
