With dual circuit brakes you need two remote servos, really isn't a good idea.
What size bore master cylinder are you using, smaller bore equals less pedal pressure required ?
another easy way of reducing pedal pressure is to use green stuff pads.
the best remote booster i know is the Gym, and build up the old leg muscles.
we are all getting to used to the luxury of modern cars, that why i'm going back to basics

You source of a decent single circuit Lockheed remote servo you might find in SA is the old Rootes/Chrysler UK Arrow range the Hillman/Sunbeam Hunter
was sold in SA with a Peugeot engine (also as the Dodge Husky pickup but that might not have the servo).
Incidentally the rear axle from these is very suitable for book Locost building.
thanks, i'm using cortina calipers, and a vw golf single master cylinder
the car stops on a dime, but the petal is quite stiff
