    My brake is very grabby ever since the restoration, the pedal feels very soft, the brake grabs hard, and the pedal return is slow. Is it the difference between the original and OEM brake servo? Anyone experienced this?

    Thx

    I would think you'll have better luck in the Technical section--- these symptoms would apply to any car with a vacuum booster, not just the Dino, and you'll get more exposure to experienced folks there.

    Soft pedal makes one think of air in the system, which could also explain the slow pedal rise, as what is pushing the pedal back up is the air un-compressing. And maybe the grabbing is when the air is finally fully compressed you get a shock wave of pressure thru the system?

    But I'm just guessing.
