I believe the secret to not having any kind of leakage is to always start with clean brake fluid. If you do decide to go with Praise Dyno Brakes Make sure your entire system is flushed of any old fluid.

I'm going on 5 years with my praise brakes and I too am very happy. I have a 69 firebird and bought the entire wheel cylinder and spring kit also. I have had no leaks and I can hold the car at 3500 plus rpms all day long. Its a tough call as going with aftermarket front discs is probably the way to go. Todds a pretty sharp guy, but mine have been hassle free for going on 5 years. Maybe its a weight thing as those A-bodys are quite a bit heavier.

good luck.......

Lyn, I put them on my 67 Cutlass this winter. After the first time out at Cordova I bought Willwood vented disc for the front. At 120 I was wondering if I was going to make the turnoff!:eek: Since the Willwoods I have no problem slowing down from 124mph.:) It still has the master cyl & rear brakes (ford) from Praise.

If I had to do it all over again I would buy aftermarket brakes, BUT.................. My brakes are awesome !!!!!!!

JMO of course............
