My 25 buck power brakes

I was in the bone yard last week lookin for a T-5 trany for my 3sp swap. I found a 67 chevy that had the compleat booster MC and all the brackets the old man sold it to me for 25 bucks I just wanted the brackets but I had a vac day today and got board so I cleand up the booster and threw it on not expecting it to work but wanted to do a mock up to see if I needed anything else. So I got it all hooked it all up used my MC and started it up and to my amazement it worked great. So I left it on. I was gona order a new one on tuesday. so I think ill see how long this one last. The old guy has about 15 trucks I'm gona go back over to check them out some time soon.

Are you saying you used your manual MC on the booster and it worked ok? Does that mean the pushrod seats are the same depth?
