Long story short but I've no longer got the factory brake linkage set'-up.  Can someone give me an idea of the linkage ratios from the brake peddle to the brake booster push rod?
This is stuff in the bracket that the booster bolts to.  Some pics would be great too.  I'm wanting to know the lengths from the pivot to each hole so I can duplicate this.  Clear as mud sorry.

Sorry...I don't have a '69 to measure.

Thanks Buzzman72.  I'm sure someone has a 69 somwhere that they can have a quick look at....? 
I've ended up with the booster bolted directly to the firewall so all of the linkages that were between the booster and the brake peddle have long since gone.  I'm trying to duplicate the macanical ratio so I can restore the brake peddle feel as right now I have a very hard peddle and it requires a fair amount of effort.

I am currently replacing the power booster on my 69 Javelin and have it out of the car. The dash is also currently out of the car. The pedal, linkage, and booster bracket are still mounted in place. With everything out of the way it should be easy for me to take measurements and/or pictures for you.   My car is a V8 with the stock power front disc brakes. Let me know if I can help. Jeff
