Can someone give a recommended brake pressure at the wheel calipers.
What I don't understand is that wilwood said.......quote.....
"With a 5/8 bore master you should see about 1935 psi and with the 3/4"
bore, your psi will be about 1364 psi. This is based on the information you
provided for your 6:1 pedal ratio."
But.... people are saying 300-400psi at the wheel cylinder is fine but wilwood is saying
over a 1000 psi is a good reading.
The instructions with the gauge I'm using says don't drive a car with less than 900 psi.
I'm lost.
I do have a 5/8" front and a 3/4" rear MC setup planned.
