Hi guys,
Today my power booster came in at auto zone.
Does this bolt up pattern look right? I got the 93 Cobra booster to keep from having to elongate the holes. Some where on here I saw a picture of a fox fire wall with out the booster.--I can't find it now. Looking at it from the bolt up side (from inside the car) the right lower bolt is closer to the center than the other ones.
Is this a typical fox booster bolt up pattern?

Looks right to me.

Most parts store boosters are just sn95 boosters with the stud relocated. In fact, you can kinda tell it's been moved.

You will still need to slot all the holes to the pass side before intstall though. Make sure then booster nuts fit, and the sn95 uses metric pitch, not sae like the fox. Who knows if they used the correct pitch on that booster

The bolt pattern looks right but i don't like what i see around each threaded stud at the base, it looks butchered up and uneven, maybe its just the pics. When i replaced my vacuum booster, i had to remove the wiper motor because of the triangular strut tower brace i have wouldn't allow enough clearance for easy removal of the vacuum booster.

That's because it's most likely an sn95 booster that was modified to be a cobra booster by the reman company.

With only 5000 cobras built...not a whole lot of cores to use.
