Remote booster on J a whole totally different deal than a vacuum booster . After much suffering found out that medium size straight body trucks routinely use this , a larger version, called Bendix hydrovac unit . A regular booster guy screws it up . Take it to truck place , ask around . Not easy to do correctly . Despite troublesome reputation , with 300 J , - I had all that , —as someone had “ rebuilt it” who could not fix a toilet valve . ( unknown to me , parts in all wrong)   . Truck guy fixed it . Very reliable in thousands of trucks. Those who claim to rebuild for 300J as car guys often in fact never saw one before . Daily thing for a straight truck shop . They know how . 

Rebuilt incorrectly it occasionally locks brakes 100% . Nice

I just bought a power brake booster for my 1971 Chrysler from Karps and saw their shop.  They had anazing inventory of boosters and even had one for my car ready to go on the shelf.  They just took mine in exchange and I was happy.  They did a great job too.  The owner and his wife were the ones I talked with and it is clear they have a lot of collective knowledge from over the years.

So much depends on what they're doing. Is the slave cylinder getting resleeved in stainless steel? Anything powder coated or plated? Always good to compare. Check out Karps Power Brake in California.
