Will any brake booster from 82-92 camaros/firebird work on my 90 camaro? Im getting one from a junk yard and need to know if any year thirdgen will work. Also will the proportioning valve be the same?

i believe the boosters are the same, the PVs are either round and cast looking for disk/drum or flat machined for disk/drum or disk/disk if you never changed anything keeo you PV and just change boosters

I know ive posted this problem before but heres my new problem. i replaced the pads, master cylinder and the calipers/rotores and all lines are in good shape. The only thing not replaced is the booster. Everyone i know says that if the booster goes out it will be hard to push down. The pedal still goes to the ground and doesnt stop the car. Can the booster be bad? I cant see anything else it could be.

The combination (proportioning) valve is different for '90-'92. The thread size and pitch is different.

Thanx,ANDYZ28

You can only get them new from GM. Or AC Delco.
