I looked at all the pictures of the original booster installs and they do not have the check valve. Do i need it or not?

Thanks, what size is the original vacuum hose?

Check valve is the elbow into the booster. Yes it's needed. Hose is 3/8 servo or vacuum hose.
Mine is under the dash. :mrgreen:

I just bought 3/8" vac hose from Blacktown Auto spares. Fitted my PBR booster fine. Not sure with the Lockheed booster, as my MK 1 S went years ago. Measure the fitting.
