Pulling the master cylinder and hydroboost makes the drivers side 10 times easier!

Yeah, it makes it kinda hard to search things when people don't call them the correct terms. Luckily I'm from Ohio so redneck terms work well in search engines.

At a local car show last month a kid came up to me and said "Look at the size of those valve covers they are huge!" I said "Yeah but they are called cam covers, its a overhead cam engine." he said "Are you sure? They look like valve covers." .... "Yeah your right they are valve covers."
