Zach, I have not connected my e-brake cables yet. I need to bleed some more I guess, but can't even get some pressure built up to start. I'll keep fooling with it. Let me know how you do.

Robber, How did you know how long to make your pushrod? What dimensions are you trying to get? Are you trying to get like 1/4'' of play before you're actuating the booster? My pushrod goes from pedal through firewall and connects to the linkage for the booster. The rod coming out of my booster still has the eye on it and it appears the eye part is up against the firewall. Maybe possible the booster is not releasing enough? I'm working out of town but will try and get a picture to tell the story.

Thanks all.
