Brake line pressures

[David Pozzi]

I'd expect to see 1300psi on the front on a 70's single piston front caliper.
Your 1 3/4" front calipers are a little small, should be closer to 1 7/8" or 1 15/16".

David thanks for answering-most the Wilwood setups that use the Dynalites have the four 1.75 pistons on them. I think that is the largest for that caliper. They have been the standard four piston Wilwood front caliper in a drag or street kit until recently and are on their 12.18 kits also. I think just year they developed a Superlite caliper upgrade for their kits that has a larger pad and pistons that Frank and some of the others started carrying.

I was expecting to be seeing over 1000psi also. The 6' of line I got for both lines only made it to one running from drivers to passenger side where I had to mount the gauges to see them.More teflon line on the way by Wednesday to plumb the fronts to see where it is.

By the way I love old vintage road race cars like Lolas- I think I even have and old HO electric one somewhere. Made it to Laguna also when I was buying some Herb Adams stuff at the old shop on Cannery Row in '79-80.
