A couple of months ago I broke my foot in several places (ouch!) and have had to drive an automatic since then. The cast is finally coming off in a couple more weeks and I'm tired of putting gas in the pickup I'm driving but do not have the upmost confidence in my ability to stomp on the brakes on the 122 if need be. Seeing fidel's post and the 140 booster got me thinking about putting a booster on the 122. I want nothing to do with the original ones or the Lockheed replacements, either. I've seen some photos of Amazons with the thin 140 booster or the fat 1800 unit in place but can't find them at the moment. The biggest issue would seem to be mounting it to the pedal box, but that aside, any guidance or photos for reference to scrutinize?

Thanks.
