I have an 89 Saleen, stock as it came from Saleen. I'm getting that vaccuum whine that tells me I need to replace the booster. I have a booster from a 2300k brake kit. Other than wheel well clearance, will this booster work with the master cylinder/brake system. The book says this an SVO/87 Mark VII system.

The car has the gray 5-spoke rims, 16/7 front and 16/8 rear, and stock 225/50's. I'd like to up the tread width to 245's. With the Racecraft suspension, will I have any clearancing problems?

Thanks

Thom

No you'll have no problems at all upgrading to 245's out back..the fronts will give you fits though.

Its not the room under the wheel well thats the problem, its the 16-7" rim on the fronts that are the problem.
