The hydroboost units are all fairly similar. The orientation of the inlets & outlets, master cylinder mounting brackets, reservoir, etc are what vary between them. I can't say one is better, you just need it all to work together, and fit under the hood. I used a 99 Mustang h-boost & the matching master cylinder, a very easy swap.

Sorry, I don't know which h-boost would fit your master.

I was running a astro booster and mc with no special bracket. Just modified the astro mounting plate and ran it straight out. That mc is pretty tall but it fit under my fiberglass hood. That was with the 302. I will have to see what fits when I get the explorer 5.0 in.

I haven't run any others but it stops my 35s with plenty of power to spare.
