Jack -
I've have the PBR booster on my BJ8 since 1990 with no problems. It's
a little stiffer pedal than original, but I like it that way... I have
better feel with the braking. The Girling booster was just a hair too
much boost if you ask me. The Lockheed booster is out of a Jaguar, so
it will probably be a little over boosted too.
Best Regards,
Alan
