Is your pedal a little more spongy than with the drums. That's the way mine was when I put the discs on. The stopping power is incredible with the discs. I left the master cylinder as it was. It is one of the mopar ones. If you have a good pedal I would give it a try. You don't have to hammer the brakes with the discs. Just a light pressure on the pedal and you will stop real nice. Just don't let the pads get to worn or they will drag. I learned that. Change the pads once a year.

Yea Mike, the peddle just felt soft. I'm sure it would of had good brakes but I didn't like the feel of the peddle. Tom the MC I put on is the Mopar style that Strange and Wilwood use (I got it from NAPA $39) I think it has a 1"3/32 bore. Just bench bleeding it feels better then the 1" bore MC. On another note I got my headers back from Nitroplate all I can say is WOW they look great. I'm very satisfied with there product and service. Thanks again for all the help. Robbie
