I think he needs the clear plastic hose, Joe.  Goes between the Master Cylinder and that hose you pictured.

Yeah, I should have explained better.

I replaced my plastic tubing with a pair of the braided blue hoses.

Did you get a picture? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Where did you source your blue braided hoses?

I'll contact a few of you to see who has what parts.

should I get a 17mm or a 19mm? The one that was on there was a 19mm, but it didn't work that well for me. Thoughts?

I've never used a 17mm as a replacement in 29 years. That must mean I have used a lot of 19mm. Gotta get to work on those 20mm some day.

Keep in mind:

Larger master cylinder=Less leverage

This is a mistake many people make. A 19mm MC is NOT an upgrade as many places advertise. What you get is a firmer pedal because you have less leverage to apply your brakes.

You don't need a larger MC unless you have much more than factory brakes. I have a 19mm w/a total of 20 pistons at the wheels. Your stock brakes have a total of 8.

That being said, I probably need a slightly larger MC and may replace it this year, but like I said, I NEED something larger to move the amount of fluid required to operate 20 pistons.

Just called PP and bought a new 19mm, all new lines, new pads, rebuild parts, and a speed-bleeder.

I'm going to add a T to the back in place of the prop valve and re-build all 4 calipers. If I aint stoppin' after all that, I need to find another hobby!

I also ordered a few feet of the blue hose to replace what I cut off. I still need the feeder lines though. Jsut to make sure!
