Since all the airpack does is boost the hydraulic pressure of the brake fluid you might have some weak brakes. But you would have pressure for testing like you said. That first block can split the fluid from and rear like it does coming out of the airpack. I would think if you got tubing and...

They are not that bad when they are working.

Take a trip down to Ralph's place and see if he has any pump rebuilding kits. The kit will have a new armature and the four rubber support rods for holding the pump in place. (Get a few and share them out) ;) Other than that kit the rest is just cleaning out.
