I had this happen on my 69 Yenko. Incorrect rod adjustment. Drive the car untill this happens, take some tools with you,losen the master cyl. from the booster,if this helps adjust the rod. You should have about an inch or two free travel on the brake pedal

Let that be a lesson to all those non-members: membership has its priveleges. If ALSS was a non-member he would have been charged the standard rate of $100 per question. Join today, operators are standing by, Mastercharge and Visa accepted, makes a great christmas gift...

Bob the booster is actually a nice piece!..had the rod that attaches to the pedal too long and was not releasing the master!!..a 1/4 inch did the trick!..as for racing that crazy Bulgarian..no way!! he has more tricks up his sleeve than a magician https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif..and I like the idea of a "driver" LS-6..wish I had something I could drive and get dirty https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif Get that car done..been waiting to see it for over a year now..my spare 512 block is going in that car!!
