Second, I love my hydroboost and it was night and day when I did the conversion, but why does hydroboost have a higher ratio than the vacuum booster when hydroboost puts out a lot more pressure to begin with?
Thanks!

The hole isn't the pivot point for the rod. It is the locating hole for the bracket! You need to move the bracket to have the correct stroke of the pedal. Just move the bracket and weld it on. I will try and post some pictures of a hydroboost pedal
