    1967 power brakes

    My 67 is a power brake car originally, but the booster was removed some time ago and I re-installed this weekend. I notice a couple things that I couldn't get a answer from on the archives. First, the pedal location is much shorter. The brake and clutch pedals pre booster were even, now brake is half distance to floor. I adjusted as far up as possible on the clevis, but still nowhere close. Second, the pedal throw isn't more than 3" when I depress the brake pedal. Engine off, no vacuum. Is this natural for a power brake car? Appreciate any comments or recommendations. Gary

      The brake pedal with power boost assist will sit lower than the clutch pedal...this is completely normal. Your first picture looks normal. My'67 for reference.

              Did you change the mounting hole? This is from the 63 AIM.

                  Harry,I did. I used the lower hole for clevis from booster and upper for brake switch strike.
