going back to manual disc brakes from power

The booster/brake "feel" is tunable.
I agree that the factory system was ridiculously sensitive.
As to M/Cs, there are three or 4 sizes to choose from, each smaller one offers more pedal travel and requires less leg- power.
As to the booster, you can adjust when and how much assist you get by adjusting the pushrod length within a narrow window, between too short and/or too long..
My happy place was the 15/16ths M/C .
15/16" bore is what I've been using and I still felt that it was too sensitive. I think I tried every pushrod length possible. If I ever go back to the booster I think I'll try a 1 1/32" bore as that may give a little more travel and less sensitivity? I'm hoping I like full manual. It will definitely be easier access to bulkhead connectors and such with the booster out of the way. As a side note, the FSM I have on CD lists 15/16" bore for manual disc/drum and 1 1/32" for power disc/drum which seems to be the opposite of what I've found anywhere else. Are all the parts stores wrong?
