Price,
I assume pedal pressure (not pedal travel) is your question.
When you replaced the master cylinder did you replace it with the same size
(I.D.) as the one you took out? Also, is it the same size as the original MC
size for a Phase 2 BJB?
I would assume that you could test whether or not the servo is functioning by
simply comparing the breaking pressure required with the vacuum line connected
& disconnected. It would be a good idea to plug the line or fitting at the
manifold when you disconnect it so that air is not sucked into the intake
manifold during the test. If you do not notice any difference then the servo is
not functioning.

There is nothing in the Bently manual about adjusting the pedal. My pedal has
about 1/2" of movement before it engages. The pedal is solid when I press it so
I believe the system has been bled correctly.
The feed back I receive when engaging the brakes when the car is in motion is
that the servo is not assisting. I don't understand, as the servo was just
rebuilt and it worked fine until I switched out the master cylinder.
