Bore size? Stroke? ( obviously in the 2"range) What original OEM application are we looking for? (Yr. & Make) Any info appreciated Thanks Stan
No, not really ...just trying to get something at the local parts house..so's if ya need a replacement on the road somwhere,it'd be easy to find... Thanx Stan
i've built several cars with `40 brakes all around , and used `68 mustang drum/drum....brakes worked great some will tell you you have to use some sort of formula to figure out what to use , that's fine if you want to be technically correct. maybe someone will jump in and tell us . i only know what has worked for me napa part # 10-1485. i don't think it has residual valves built in , so put 10# ones in your front and rear line when you plum it
