A week ago I e-mailed the list looking for any
help for a brake problem. If you recall, I installed a new 8" booster
and master cylinder. The car originally had a dual master cylinder w/
discs on the front only. The car has early 70s Camaro front discs and
stock drums on the rears. After the installation the car had no or
little front brake and the rears locked up. I installed a
proportioning valve on the rear, but was still having problems with lock
up.
I appreciate the help the list from those who
bothered to respond.
Here what I did to fix the problem:
I installed organic pads on the front instead of
hard pads.
Reversed the lines from the master cylinder -
front reservoir to the front brakes.
And the most significant thing was to adjust the
proportioning valve the RIGHT WAY.
It works great NOW.
I also had a Headman X-pipe installed on
the car today. I sounds awesome.
The 427 BB has Edelbrock RPMs and a new
Comp Hyd Roller.
