    booster problem

    ive asked around at so many shops and no one was helpful. SOMEBODY PLEASE help me. ok here goes:

    i got a 73 AMC Matador and i want to install a booster that came with the car, but it never got installed. i took off the old master cylinder and put a new one on the booster. The problem is, as you can see by the pictures, the pushrod in the booster doesnt go into the firewall, thus i cannot attach it to the brake pedal. it comes just up to the mounting bracket. second problem, i took the outer bracket off of the booster so i can slide the rod into the firewall, but the configuation of the bolts on the inner bracket outside the booster is too long. (the outer one fits perfect). last problem...if i were to drill new holes into the firewall for the inner bracket configuration the push rod still wounldnt be long enough to connect to the pedal. is there some sort of extension i need to buy? or is this just the wrong booster?


    ive asked a bunch of mechanics, including master techs and they dont know what to do. so if you can help me fix this, i will think of you as a god.
