Default What do I do???????

I am having trouble finding a place to mount my remote resivoir for my brake/clutch cylinders that is above the cylinders. What do I have to do to mount it lower than the cylinders?? Can it be done with a check valve type system?? Thanks, Earl

If you are in a build why not consider floor mounted pedalbox? I installed this purchased unit, takes time but it was well worth it! Get's noticed at every show!


I am glad I bought it.....

Well, I thought about that, but I already invested in a reverse pedal kit with the 3 cylinders attached and have it all installed. I had the remote resivoir mount location all set until it was taken over by something else....LOL......now I am looking for a new spot and I am 99% sure it will be lower than the cylinders. Thanks for the input, Earl

you'll just need to do a slow roll so the fluid can gravity feed----or go over a hill top real fast so you can generate negative Gs----or in other words---it won't work!!!!

You can try some 2psi residual pressure valves downstream, but I really think you're better off with the reservoirs placed anywhere above the master cylinders.
Even if your feed lines dip below their level on the way.
