Good explaination.
Ref my heavy brake pressure (push hard to stop the car!) ... I need heavy shoes while driving! Got some info from Wilwood tech, make sure you start with at least a 6:1 pedal ratio, check balance bar, air in system, etc. 7/8" MC should work should work on dynalite (4 pistons x 1.75"). Does not recommeded anything smaller than 3/4" MC (currently using Howe 7/8") pedal travel may increase. Will try 3/4" on the front first and see how it feels. Howe Racing recommends big calipers, big rotors, let them warm up ...

What brakes/Master Cylinder combo are owners with 15" wheels running?
