No, I am having a little issue with by booster. Sometimes the brake pedal is not returning all the way, it may stay down about a inch or so. After researching the issue the problem is most likely in the booster. I can feel some resistance and friction when I press the pedal down by hand, I believe it's maybe a tight seal or something in the booster. I actually had this booster rebuilt about 15 years ago when I had it chromed. So my options are to either send it out again or I can buy a new chrome booster but they do not have the correct H body brackets (surprise) available. So, if I go the route of a new one I will need to get H body specific brackets and send them off to chrome. Unfortunately the originals are riveted on to the booster so they will need to be carefully removed so I can bolt them on to the new replacement booster if I go this route. Still waiting to hear from the guy who rebuilt it to get his thoughts.....
I temporarily added a return spring to the pedal and it seems to work ok, however I don't know if I want that to be my long time fix. I could cut the ones off my original booster but I would rather not cut that one up.
