2 important heads up from my MkIV build experience.
I have the Wilwood pedal box with dual masters. I have had nothing but problem after problem with masters failing. I'm changing to the donor pedal assembly with a dual master cylinder and proportioning valve. I've had the pedal go soft too many times.
Also related to Wilwood pedal box, the clutch cable assy was inadequate for my heavy clutch. Mike Forte does sell an excellent slave cylinder conversion kit.
Both of these items are a bear to get to, once the car is assembled.

Thanks, I am going to go through everything once I have the body off, I may have found a good "coyote" mechanic to go through motor/electronics and tune... I can manage through the rest and will get familiar with the wilwood system, I had it on my 33 and frankly wasn't a fan of the balancing bar, on that vs prop valve, never really felt like I had the bias right.

Going to Gordon's place Monday for a few items and as much as I can find out about the MK4

Thanks again.
