Brake Update;
My '71 had great pedal feel, until I put A calipers on it.

I got a good deal on struts & calipers at the PartsHeaven swap, and got some Koni Sports from Rich @ HPH. The original pedal feel was rock hard, turned out that was because the front calipers were 911 REARS! So a little softer with actual front calipers with much larger pistons is to be expected, right? I took out the prop valve and put in a tee, but I'm thinking bigger master now... It's 19 now, who's got a 21 that will fit?

Meanwhile, I put a pair of M's on the '74, I have yet to yank the prop valve, and it still feels better than the '71. 19mm also.

Gotta drop the '71 engine to re-seal a case plug this weekend, wish me luck!
