  Probably. That's actually quite a bit. I'd have the disks turned by someone
who knows what they are doing and understands that racing disks are not street
(otherwise they'd probably say the disks are too skinny to turn). Or don't
worry about it. Consider it kind of a poor man's ABS

    On Randalls sujestion i did a quick check on the disc thickness on  about
10  locations   Many are the same and the most variation is .006 I did not
spend much time on this and will do it more carefully as time allows  It will
take more time to  do the run out check as well. Is .006 enough to cause
sittuation      rob

      I'd see how true your rear disks are, a little wobble causes a lot of
pressure variation. Rear wheels are also prone to a lot more hop as the weight
shifts forward. Hard to see how that would make the pressure flutter, but it
might.

        I have Mike Munson's rear disc brake convertion on my tr-6. I recently
added
        bias gauges. The rear gauge flutters rapaidly under breaking.I have
not lost
        performance and i  am pretty certain there is no air in the system The
gauge
        for the front remains steady under breaking thanks for the help
