Sounds fine, assembled right. THe adjuster junk does go on the trailing

High pedal pressure but otherwise good brakes could be wrong master
cylinder bore. Test drive, use two feet if necessary, but see if you can
lock 'em up. If it behaves well other than pressure, could be MS bore
(exchanges master wrong bore) or pushrod in wrong hole.If you didn't
personally do the work...
