Just got the new Billet Specialties catalog and was thinking of a Tru Trac system. However, I noticed for all systems there is a warning from Billet Specialties which states Tru Trac systems are not designed for use with hydroboost braking systems. I saw some pics of the NRE super camaro and I noticed they run a Billet Specialties Tru Trac with a hydratech brake system. Can anyone shed any light on this for me?

We sell Billet Specialties Tru Track along with 4 other brands of front drive. And we sell quite a few of them. Only thing I could possibly think of is the possibility of steering / brake priority issues which we do not see as a real big issue. And see no reason why this would be a problem with the BS kit more then any other.


I will get the official answer though and let you know.

I HAVE BILLET SPECIALTIES TRU TRAC SYSTEM WITH HYDROBOOST ON MY CAMARO, AND I HAVE HAD NO ISSUES. I HAVE OVER 3,000 MILES ON BOTH SYSTEMS WITH NO PROBLEMS.:thumbsup:

the reason for the warning is that the fluid volume is lower.. so in theory you could get aeration under braking.... It was a big problem with the march billet reservoir that holds very little fluid compared to the oem saginaw...

i think the warning text is just carried over to every non-oem reservoir to dot the I´s and cross the T´s in the hyrdaboost legal dept.. and not a measure of looming problems for you.. but i know from personal experience that the march-saginaw reservior is a no-no with a hydraboost
