Hi guys and gals,
I've got some questions regarding my current setup and possible changes.
I've got the 911 front end w/3.5" spaced front calipers (what are those, E's or S's?) and spaced 914 rear calipers on 911 rotors.
Big V8, 8X18's up front and 11X18's out back.
Also using the stock 17mm master cylinder and having no problems whatsoever with brake pedal spongyness. Stops hard and fast.
Observations:
When my rear calipers were seized, and all of the braking was coming from just the fronts, the stopping power felt about the same as it does now with good rear calipers. Before 100% of the braking was coming from the front brakes. Now it feels like 90-95% of the braking is still coming from the front brakes.
My questions:
Does the stock proportioning valve keep that much pressure from going out back?
Will a "T" make that much braking difference? better/worse?
If I go the T route, will I be pushing additional fluid to warrant a 19mm master cylinder or will the 17mm still be fine?
I dunno.
Your thoughts and experience are greatly appreciated as always.
Roger
