My power brake booster has a vacuum leak. I’m not sure the proper part to replace it with. My car had stock power disk brakes And the calipers, rotors etc. were changed to a master power brake unit. I don’t think the master cylinder and booster were changed at the time. What do I replace this with? Pardon my ignorance

I was looking at this one. I have never installed one but know there may be an issue with length of rod for pedal?

The problem with a '67 B-Body with disc brakes is that they all used the 'Hemi' offset booster regardless of what motor was installed. I am not sure just what you have there but you should have a bracket assembly between the booster and the firewall. If you do, have your booster rebuilt by someone like Power Brake Booster (https://boosterdeweyexchange.com/). I can't comment on alternatives as I only have worked with the stock setup. Here is a picture of what your bracket should look like if you have the stock assembly.

It has and adjustable rod from looking at the picture , maybe you could swap on your rod or just bolt it onto your bracketry ?

If you're concerned with originality you should send your original out and get it rebuilt .

If your booster has a leak, why not rebuild it?There are few outfits that have been doing that for decades, no problems. Only hurts your pocketbook.
