Ford has used it on the Mustang since the mid-'90s and on Lincoln and Mercury product lines as far back as the early '80s. The Hydroboost-assist unit gets its power from the engine, but instead of engine vacuum, it's powered by the power-steering pump. Yes, hydraulic fluid from your power-steering system is used as the assist, giving you a nice power-brake-pedal feel without the need for the room to fit a big booster can. This means you can have a radical engine with poor vacuum, but still have great brakes and a light, power-brake-pedal feel.

Not sure how this could work on a car with no power steering. My MC is from a late model Mustang and uses an adapter plate (PI or PE, not sure...) with the stock vacuum booster. Is this what you meant?
