Someone upstairs decided it's pick on Jay week... anyway. Been trying to finish up my Aerospace 4 wheel disc conversion and I've run into some trouble.
Basically here's the situation, the rear discs are locking up and staying locked off or on the pedal. The front discs are doing absolutely nothing. I have bled the system to death, including bench bleeding of the master cylinder. I've narrowed it down to several potential problems.
1.) The
Wilwood master cylinder I am using does not have the best directions. All the instructions say besides the usual warning BS is that the MC is balanced 69% Front and 31% Rear ... now it does not say which line is the front or the rear and the reservoirs for each are the same size. I am running (as mounted on the car) the front line to the front system and the rear line to the rear system. http://www.wilwood.com/products/master_cylinders/tandem/tendemdwg.gif
2.) I ditched the original distribution block. I ran the rear output of the MC directly to the rear line and the front output goes through a T fitting to the front brakes.
3.) Maybe I need some type of residual pressure valve somewhere?
4.) Maybe I need a vacation.
On top of this I've had to ditch the ECI mechanical parking brake setup... that will be my next item on eBay 'cause I've got enough $300 paperweights.
If anyone has suggestions please fire away.
