RE: How do you Convert to manuel brakes?
Im not sure if thats such a good idea switching to man. rack.Reason why I am doing this is because I want to put in a rally brake and I have the money in an account at SPEEDWAY.Plus I will be installing an adj. proportioning valve along with it.I have the schematic(layout) as to how to run the lines but am asking about what I need to convert over to man.brakes.Which will rid the front end of car 40 lbs as far as the booster goes and a lil more Im sure as I go into it deeper lol.Weight,better feel for the brakes,adjustability!

I've actually heard from some pro-drivers that man. brakes give better pedal response and know exactly whats going on with the brakes, but thats thier $ .02
