Are you sure you have the rear drums adjusted correctly? If you happened to redo the brakes and them are not adjusted, you will get a really soft pedal.

According to TOFIC, you can have a lot of crud in the used boosters which can be bled out by disconnecting one of the hoses and sticking it in a buckets and then flushing the system with new PS fluid.

Success!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!;D

It was the spacing on the calipers the whole freakin' time. I have good pedal and they stop well. I even got to take it around the block. The pedal return is not real speedy, but its better. If all else fails I'll put a spring on the pedal to aid with this. Again I want to thank everyone for the help and advice, this is really a load off. Now its on to the roll cage project.

kbronco, don't worry about the return on the pedal. It will get much better the more you drive it. It's just some residual air in the hydroboost system.
