Does the pedal behaviour change with more vacuum - that was the original problem?

In my case it does. The higher the vacuum, the greater the assist and the harder the pedal, the higher the pedal is.

I am not privileged to know the process in which the original brake booster or the booster limit points were selected? I don't think that the amount of engine vacuum the STOCK 351c engine provided was irrelevant?

Now to me it seems that the simplest solution to this issue now and even then was to include a vacuum pump in the original car sold to the public?

None of us know what the official perspective was or what the internal politics of building the car was at the time, so it can be easy now to be judgmental on poor or an incomplete engineering issue if in fact it was an issue at all then?

Perspectives have changed. Available engineering has changed. Solutions are available now.
