Just upgraded to 911 suspension and brakes and ready to fill with brake fluid. Car will be raced first with 1.8 L four, then 215 c.i. Aluminum V-8. Since the system is almost all empty of fluid, now is the time to consider switching to DOT 5 silicone based brake fluid. Any suggestions or recommendations.
Thanks, Mike S. |

For DOT 4, consider Motul RBF 600, dry boiling point 594F (312C), wet boiling point 401F (205C). Or RBF 660, dry boiling point 617F (325C), wet boiling point 400F (204C).
