That's part 2.  It can be adjusted.  There is a threaded piece and a jamb
nut that will allow you to shorten it.  Or you can mount some flat washers
on the mounting studs (the concours judges will have fun with that!)

As an experiment, drive the car until the brakes start to hang up again.

Then loosen the two nuts that secure the master cylinder to the booster
evenly, 1/6 turn each at a time, and see if the brakes free up.  If so
then
the actuator rod in the booster, which was adjusted for your old master
cylinder, is too long for your new one.
