      Brake line pressure

      Someone who knows, please verify I have this right.
      ------------------------------------------------------------
      For purposes of this example, assume 55% front bias on the balance bar and a pedal ratio of 7:1.

      Assume .750" dia master front and .8125" dia master rear.

      So, if there is a 100# push on the pedal, in a perfect world the line pressure in the front would be ~870# and the rear would be ~600#.

      Do I have the math on this right?

      Thanks Tito. I appreciate it. Ive done the research and math homework several years ago, but never actually applied it to real world parts selection....until now. Needed a validation.

      Thanks professor.
