Ok, thanks for all the input. Lots of work, lots of engineering on pedal travel, and push rod length, Tons of patience, and MOST OF ALL, CORECT...
No, on booster mounting. it was fine using an adapter kit, the master cylinder piston had to be pushed in in order to mount it to booster, but it...
Yes Disk/Disk Master for 79 Vette 1 1/8 bore
Jimmy, are you using 1 or 1 1/8 bore Willowood?
Trying to reply in order, only about 1.5 total travel. Booster has no gap between master and firewall, fact is I had to push the piston in about...
System was bleed using a power bleeder, forcing fluid through the master cylinder to each caliper , catching fluid coming out in a jar until all...
I realize this may have to be posted somewhere else but did not see a brake section. I have completed the 4 wheel disk conversion on a 1959...

I All parts needed to convert 52-53 buick with straight eight motor[ATTACH] 713 822 355[ATTACH] 3
have all parts ready for rebuild, pump does turn and there is still fluid in it. Comes with everything you need except hoses, i do have the but...
Ok, so I have to replace the ignition switch, bypass the carb start switch and run a wire to starter solenoid from new ignition switch. Any idea...
Any one know how to do this? Thanks, Barry
Took 1 year to strip to the metal, lots of sand paper and elbow grease, and metal conditioner
Almost finished after 4 years
Oh yeah, chauk wheels first thing. OK this is what's up, in the pivot arm that Both the steering collum linkage and shiftshaft hook up to is a...
Not sure yet, need to get under car to see, it moves fine from the top for a short distance, but i need to put it in drive unhook linkage and go...
I did, its fine.
Having an issue getting the shiffter in and out of drive, man you gotta really pull down hard to get it out of drive to go to reverse and push up...
Thanks!!!!!! I Think think that is a ve ry good possability, I pulled the solenoid and compared the side by side, the new solenoid has a longer...
ok guys was having problem with starter so I changed the solenoid to a new 12volt from a 6volt that system has been converted to 12 from 6, the...
Never replaced or removed it, just it was turning very slow, changed over to 12 volt and that problem stopped. This other problem just started,...
Ant idea of how to remove the starter/ I can not see but one bolt.
I have a 1952 Buick Super with 263 straight eight, the arm that engages the starter motor is not engaging, the solenoid is spinning, If I engage...
well, no one knows what it is worth. will post in classifieds
Any one know what it is worth, It came of a 1952 Roadmaster with straight eight.:D It has the pump, bracket, pitman arm, pulley for crank, gear...
I did clean all the conectors to system including the grounds, 1 guage battery to starter wire same for ground from bat to engine mount engine...
I think I will try that, cheap enough. I will have to repalce the 6 volt relays with 12 anyway when doing the conversion. Whent ahead and...
well, not having much luck finding the relay, some call it a starter relay, some call it an ignition relay. Any way to bypass it, i will...
I checked all the wire going to it and cleaned them good, but I may have found the problem, one of the very tiny wires coming of the coil winding...
