His answer was to "throw that piece of garbage away,its all wrong"!

What is the problem with your booster then? Not holding vacuum I suppose? One of my cars previous owners had replaced the bellcrank with a home-made rod . I am pretty sure that is why my booster started to leak. One of the rubber sealings had become cracked due to this home-made rod and it all caused an annoying whistling sound inside the coupé (and a not so good idle...).
I found two links on the net that might be useful:
