DOH! During the engine rebuild I taped off the intake manifold and painted it. During the reassembly I peeled off all the tape on the vacuum ports, or so I thought. This little 1/2in piece was blocking the brake servo port.

I got my brakes back. :)

Haha, that will do it for sure!

I've done very similar things before myself. Of course I ended up spending hours trying to figure out what the issue could be, only to find out it was the simplest thing.

Occam's Razor is something that can almost always be applied to situations like this.
