Hey,
Been reading the other thread and have similar problems. Here's my set-up:
B-body wagon front spindles
1LE front rotors
Howe Racing dual 2.1215" piston calipers (#33701)
'78 B-body iron master cylinder
Stock rear drums with S-10 wheel cylinders
Monte vacuum brake booster
Monte vacuum brake pedal
Problem I have is too much pedal travel or soft pedal. Since the changes the pedal takes a lot of travel to stop the car. After the travel the pedal gets hard and the car stops well.
Anyone with a similar set-up? I am wondering if I need a different master size. Seems like I need to move a larger volume of fluid before things start happening.
I am suspect of my master cylinder so my plan now is to put a rebuilt B body master on and bleed the brakes a few times.
Any thoughts or similar experience to get a firm quick pedal?
