My brake pedal is real soft (914-6) . So I plan to
1) flush and bleed the system 2) replace the flexible brake lines with braided stainless steel lines (please recommend a source for the lines) 3) replace the master cylinder. Some people say don't use the braided steel lines on a street car, some say it is fine. What does everyone think???? Thanks. |

The Cap'n will tell you to replace with new rubber lines.
Others will agree, some will disagree. If you decide to go with stainless lines make sure you get the DOT rated lines. Check with GPR and Paragon Products, they both have 'em. |
