    I haven't seen it in a pic, but you do have a banjo bolt for the fitting?

    And another idea about running vehicle on jacks-----------there is no road drag friction, aero to slow car down so freewheeling in gear at an idle would be more than rolling on the road.

    I'm thinking that your front calipers are too small and as they fill up the fluid to the rear stops also????????

    small update on brakes, they still suck. Here's what I found with new pressure gauge that I could screw into the bleeder ports on the calipers. In a panic stop, 6 to 1 ratio, Rear hit 600 psi, Front hit 1100 psi .
    Have to find time to talk to the pros again at MBP and Wilwood and give them the test results.
    Its getting close to hotrod season again here in TX. high 70's today.
