well just drove my 83 stang for first time after ..putting some more parts on it ,,i converted the power brakes to manual ..i cant stop it for shiit now i pulled hole shot in drive way and almost hit the fence...if a cant stop it from 20 mph to 0 in 30ft that sucks..i might as well run an 1/8 mile now cause i will need a 1/8 to stop it....[:@][:@]other than that car is running stronger than ever,,that speed demon carb made a difference..along with the rear anti rollbar...,,DONT CONVERT...IM PISSED..

Why would you want to do that anyways?

I learned to frive manual on a truck with a column shifter, no power steering, and no power brakes. THat thing SUCKED.

cause i got no vacuum motor only pulls 6 inches..thought it would stop better ,,with no booster..but not..

i used the same one...it feels like im stepping on a brick!...on a panic stop ..i cant stop in time ..almost hit a car....! ..?????

dan

how about manual steering too

the flamming river rack did great no problem there...my 78 chevette got manual brakes and stops better than my stang ...

Sounds like you need a larger master cylinder. Did you totally eliminate the booster? Keeping the booster in line without running vacuum to it will increase the braking effort. The other thing you could do is to use an accumulator with a check valve that will store vacuum for when you need it. You will probably still produce decent vacuum while decelerating so using an accumulator with a check valve could work pretty well unless you modulate that brake pedal a lot.

yes got elim.kit..might have to go with power booster agian with a vac. can ...it seemed better than it is now..going to need a paracute to stop now..
