I've done this on two vehicles, mine has 9 inches of vacuum at idle. Problem solved and a lot cheaper and gives you more room in that area by the valve cover. Just picked up a rebuilt one at o'Reilly's and it's worked great the past few years.
Careful if you do this as you will throw yourself and your passengers through the windshield the first few times you drive it!

I was looking at this as an option but I have a question. My booster has a u shaped bracket that fits around the pedal shaft with a pin that goes thru it and the a cotter pin goes thru that. How do you secure the pushrod to the pedal and is it the right length right off the bat?
