Default Re: Strange Engineering Master Cylinder

Richard, my car is factory manual brakes... all system is new...i didnt bother to check the piston size, when i installed the Master Cyl, about 1 1/2 yrs ago... ive since changed line locks, thinking that was the problem, but i believe its just the wrong master cyl. Or, its just a piece of junk. We used the Chrysler part, on my brother's 10.00 car, and it worked perfect. I just couldnt remember what car it came off of... All you have to do , is , notch the holes out , a bit, make a new pushrod, and you are in business....Ive bled brakes several times... doesnt help... BTW, the car drives like a Caddy, with the Global west stuff, adjustable Baer tie rods, and moroso springs... lifts straight, now. It used to twist on launch. 1.485 60fts , with bracket engine and 4.11 gears, bias slicks, 2400 footbrake...
