I have a CSX 47xx that I’ve owned for 20 years. I just rebuilt engine, carbs sent to Jim Ingese in FL, Brakes, recoated sidepipes, new tires, etc.



The brakes are Baer in my CSX4700 (are red with White Shelby lettering on the outside). If you need calipers mustang “R” front and corvette rear. ( ‘95 mustang “R” and ‘84 Corvette four piston).

The three reservoirs are Girling’s (two large are brakes and one small is clutch) need to be completely flushed if your car sat for awhile, as mine sat for a few years because of my issues. I had to replace with new Girling reservoirs (Finish. line) they are so thin that after many years they just don’t seal ( gasket disintegrated).

If your pads need to have a good brake-in, give it a hard drive and get them hot, someone told me once to ride them to get really good and hot.
