Hey guys,

What brand booster is this?

I got this with a 71 duster. The car was converted to 73 brakes
does this look like the right booster?

Thanks

That is correct for 73 up ....72 and earlier were flatter and bigger diameter....they actually look like dinner plate size
 
I pulled one that looked identical off a 73 or 74 Dart (actually a bit rustier). It is a Midland-Ross booster. The V-band makes it simple to take apart. I also had one on my 65 Newport, but it was a rebuilt, and the firewall bolt pattern differs. The alternate is a Bendix(?) model, with the 2 shells crimped together. My 65 one had a hole in the diaphragm where the vacuum enters, despite using a filter to stop gas fumes. I looked everywhere for internal parts to rebuild it, but nada. Finally made my own diaphragm from neoprene sheet, which tested OK but haven't run it.
