Ward, let me "quote" straight from a parts cataloge, ==changing over to
silicone fluid only requires you to keep filling the M/C and pumping the
old
dot 3/4 out, nothing else"== this cataloge is "TR Racetorations", one of
the
largest T/R race shops in the UK. Lot of myths about DoT 5 destroying
rubber
parts or aluminum parts for that matter, remember "ALL" Corvettes have
aluminum everything for years and they use nothing but # 5. "FT"
