Aussie Mike is right...my mention of making two lines for the front into one is RTA approved but more importantly it has been engineer calculated to correct specs with the correct Ford master cylinder.PBR 1" bore. We measured master cylinder volumes,slaves, brake line volumes,caliper volumes,disc "wiped" area dimensions and brake pad surface areas (my engineer,now partially retired,) argued and won with the RTA that these specifications were above any safety standard requirements and the simple fact that the brake system was designed to work efficiently for a 2 ton car and was tested a total of six individual times and produced highly acceptable results every time. The system in my car is good ! I'm a fussy dick and this system looks OK to me. I have put 280 Ks on the car before rego and about 18 after...I will be looking for lighter calipers in the future along with "disc hats" on the front end instead of disc/bearing/studs. I've got peg drive jobbies.
Don't be scared of brakes...they are pretty basic when you know all the facts.... just don't take shortcuts.
Good Luck... !
