Another idea is to put the dry cell battery in the torque box, moves the weight back and gives even more space in the engine bay.

Access is via a removable foot plate on the floor on the passenger side, so does not matter if right or left hand drive.

Does anyone know where I can buy 1 of these, its to convert a 66 mustang to power brakes without modifying the pedal box.

Some of the boosters come with it, but I haven't seen them sold separately.

Can you share where you got it?
I'd consider putting one on mine to be honest, but not sure I have room.

Duplicating the crush points under the inner fenders, the 69 shock towers dont have them in the same places as the 66 aprons

Me too, lots of room around the heads and headers that I don't have. Where did you get them? Ed

I brought the 69 shock towers from a guy in Queensland years ago, then I cut them down and welded on RRS shock tower notching kit plates.
