Hello,
looking at doing a swap and need to get the smallest intake manifold available to fit beside my brake booster...I've got one of those big boosters from 1971....swapping into a 1800..
any suggestions?
 
Booster Delete?

Or, try to fit a Ford Cosworth YB intake manifold.

You might have to do a custom intake. Are you mounting the B230FT upright or at an angle?

I used the stock one on my 122, no brake booster and it barely misses the MC (and I modified it to move the throttle body to the top):

Send me your email address, I have a writeup on a B230FT in an 1800 that might help out.

Here's the one I was thinking about (he removed the brake booster):

Second on the remote booster. I've got one in my '66. Apparently it was a dealer-aftermarket option installed by some. You could also get a new remote servo booster from jegs or somewhere else. I'll probably keep mine (after changing the MC to dual circuit and appropriate size) since I'll need all the maneuverability I can get, swapping in a B5234T3.

It's also worth noting that dual circuit remote boosters are hard to come by. It may just be easier to properly size your master cylinder to use no booster.
