      I have the same problem with my rear Wilwood brakes. I tried 10# RPV for a short period before removing them. I felt that the drag was noticeable and the rear brakes were unable to effectively shed heat.

      After a series of braking test I did a "cool down" period and monitored the temps. The front brakes were substantially cooler than the rear. My theory is the RPV drag was causing the increased temperature and I removed them. I have played with trying to tighten my bearing lash on my semi-float axle, which has helped a hair...but not a lot.

      I've just chosen to live with it and check-up the brakes after reasonable turns. It's habit now.
