Brake pedal ratio
I am in the process of installing a 350 in my 67. The engine has too much cam to keep the power brakes. I was discussing this with the people from wilwood. I am planning on going back to manual brakes. It has four wheel gm disc. But they need to know my brake pedal ratio. Anyone know what it is?

Re: Brake pedal ratio
Measure the distance from the center of the brake pedal pad to the center of the pedal arm pivot. Then measure from the center of the push rod hole to the pivot. Divide the first measurement by the second. That's your brake pedal ratio.

Re: Brake pedal ratio
Why don't you go with the power brakes that run off of the steering system?
