Thread: Brake troubles

Roger Thanks----I knew it was a cpp valve, issue with it is that it doesn't apply pressure to the rears first before the fronts-------OEM combo valves have a feature where initial pressure is applied to rears before the fronts. Without this I don't believe that the oem rear calipers will work properly which will inhibit them from auto adjusting the parking parts------

That valve is strictly a junction block to include the stop lite switch and the rear prop valve-does not satisfy the requirements for a street system.

Navy-I noticed in your pics that you ran a rod from your shifter to a pivot toward the rear of trans and then another forward to the shift arm-----good thinking to keep the geometry correct for trans/shifter notches-I did that on a car I built for a customer and the paint shop outfit left if off when putting body/frame back together---and then--------Also they sent out the polished stainless exhaust headers/side pipes(Cobra type) and had the powder coated a lite grey------------


Also I noticed on the pic of your brake pedal that you not only had an arm at a wierd angle and length but that you had shortened the foot arm by 4 or 5 inches?????? Both of those effect your leverage tremendously but also both arms are on the same side of pivot and would have extreme geometric moment of force ---------
