I've been meaning to share this info for months now since I spoke to one of the very helpful guys at Power Brakes SA.

Turns out they have the ability to completely rebuild the all alloy VH24 Bendix boosters used in early Holdens up to EH. The diaphragms have been almost unobtainable over the last few years so they have found a replacement that works and can rebuild the whole thing for a bit over $600 (plus freight both ways). Still much, much cheaper than the ebay based alternatives and all you need is a decent booster to send them - no exchange.
Worth sussing out if you are wanting to go all original under the bonnet.
They are very polite and really know their stuff.
Trust this helps someone.

I have always found the folks at Power Brakes very helpful and reasonably priced. Their web page has a fair bit of early Holden stuff incl sleeved stainless.

Re: Bendix VH24 Rebuilder
Thanks Stephen
I thought I was on the right bus with those guys as Ian was more than helpful and really knows his trade.
Much better dealing with the guys directly and keeping the extra $$$ in you builds !
Cheers and happy to share the lead as I had inquired all over the place before I spoke to Power Brakes SA.
