so, i got some helpful tips and hints on the previous brake question post,
but the main question is still unanswered ....

- what exactly is the difference between the early (pre '78) 911 MC and the later model ('78 and onward) MC ???


also, anyone out there who runs mid '80s carrera brakes all around and got the brakes balanced OK? if so, what MC are you using? what else did you have to do to get it balanced?

sooo many questions ...

Andy I have carerra brakes on all 4 corners... 19mm MC... Strangely enough I had the opposite problem you have... My rear brakes locked up early... this is not fun when approaching the bus stop at the glen at 140mph!!

I installed a wilwood adjustable bias valve in the rear circuit... and have dialed it pretty much in...

I can get on the brakes really hard now and all four wheels seem to be locking at pretty much the same time..

carrera calipers,drilled and slotted carrera rotors, hawk blue pads all around, 19mm MC, ATE blue fluid, braided teflon brake lines (just the flexible part)
