Here we go again with brake problems
After driving for 15 years with poor brakes on my E-M, I decided to try to improve them by changing to a pair of smaller master cylinders.
The car is set up with a balance bar system. I've seen the same pedal assembly in Midstates cars. I have no idea who manufactures it. It had 3/4" master cylinders. To increase the clamping pressure, I installed 5/8" wilwood master cylinders. All I accomplished was a longer pedal travel (which I expected) and the brakes are worse. I'm pulling my hair out!
The rest of the system is Wilwood 4 piston brakes on the front and Lincoln Mk VIII discs on the rear.
Aside from bleeding the brakes again (which I'm doing, right after I finish writing) does anybody have any suggestions?
