    Correct PB booster check valve...1966

    Any of the two original PB booster check valves correct for 1966? Black clamps on booster hose? Thanks in advance.

        Yes on Black clamps on the booster hose, note that originals had the "ears" on the clamps straight-cut, where replacements used in current cars use rounded ears.

          If I remember correctly William, clamps were of the black phosphate finish.

              Michael,
              Could be the angle of the pix, but, neither seem to have to typical circular protrudance present on production units.

                I'm used to seeing this form of geometry. Note the relative height of the inner vs. outer rings...

                  Hard to tell much from the side Jack. How about a frontal shot. Thanks.

                        Michael,

                        Yo.....delightful. Thanks.

                        Guess I'm still on the hunt for one of these. Anyone?

                          I'm curious about these valves too. Were they specific for C2 models or year specific? My '65 valve doesn't look like the pic (and I knew that). 65 judging manual says "opaque off-white color with a single concentric circle and dimple in the center". Just like what is pictured. So, is this the one I should be looking for my '65? thanks

                              Thanks Bill, that helps a lot. One last question on these valves...Is this particular booster valve specific to corvette of that era or would the same one have been used on other GM cars of same years; Maybe passenger cars, Pontiac, Buick, Olds, ect?
