As part of an engine compartment restoration, I switched to silicone for
both my brakes and clutch. I had rebuilt the brake master cylinder and the
clutch slave cylinder. After allowing the old brake fluid to gravity drain
out, I filled the reservoir with DOT 5 and bled the brakes in the usual
manner, ensuring that what was coming out was purple colored DOT 5. No
problems whatsoever - none.
