Does anyone know if the XR/V8 brake booster is just a straight swap on a 6 cyl NC Fairlane.

Yeah, long as you got both the metal spacer between the booster and firewall, and the plastic spacer between booster and master cylinder

should come with the booster...
i dodged up the booster/master cylinder one with nuts and washers cause I lost the proper one, but I wouldnt recommend it to anyone LOL
It hasn't failed after 50,000kms, but still, its pretty dodge.

No drama, they make a nice difference, makes the pedal feel heaps better.
Good luck.

Yeah, met him a couple of times. Top bloke, but agree with the dodgyness - The things I've seen him do.

I believe he runs a business called DBA.
