I haven't compared the Ford and Chev parts lists to see if the numbers for the main unit (without elbows, filters etc.) are the same but can tell you that the C60-X uses a different booster (with linkage mounted external reactionary valve rather than the internal valve used by other Chevs) on the early trucks and an entirely different system on the later ones. The F60-H has another, completely different brake booster system.

He use to have 3 different models of CMP brake boosters listed with pictures for sale..... one was identical to the model that Phil and I managed to squirrel away.
Master cylinder and linkages are totally different between Chev and Ford........ On comparable C60 and F60 I do not beleive that they are the same unit based on factory pictures I looked at....... Bob C.

Looking at the Ford and Chev parts books, each of them has their own numbers for the complete booster and the parts in it and don't show the other maker's number for reference as they do in other places in the parts bookso I'm guessing the complete assembly has some kind of difference between the two makes. That said, quite a few of the internal parts show the same number in the "proprietary or manufacturer's mnumber" column at the right of the page so there are definite similarities. If they are dimensionally same/similar and the maintenance books give the same maintenance procedure that might suggest ttat they could be exchanged even if they weren't originally considered the same unit. More study is needed.

Both Ford and Chevy ones I have seen are the same. Just that the set up stuff is different...
Chevy have a breather attatched to the Booster itself whilst Ford have the breather set up remotely. The design is by Bendix and the booster I had rebuilt has written on it... MF'D Under DE WANDRE PAT. BENDIX - ECLIPSE LTD WINDSOR, CANADA
