Re: This might need to be a sticky on disc brake conversions

But are you taking about manual brake master cylinder or one with a booster behind it?

Re: This might need to be a sticky on disc brake conversions

Manual drum to manual or power disc require changing the pedal pivot point on OE linkages. It's also required if changing a vacuum/pwr brake set-up to/from Hydraboost.

All utilize a slightly different ratio.

Master cylinder 'bore' sizes are also different depending on the combination of parts used.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
