[Fot] Wilwood 570 brake fluid

[JAMES GRAY]

The only Triumph brake components I have left are the rear slave cylinders and they are fine with Motul 600.

I used it with the stock clutch master & slave too with no problems. That's all gone now in favor of a fully hydraulic

clutch.

I've been using Valvoline DOT 3/4 fluid and it's worked out OK but at one track (Thompson), I'm always over heating the fluid. I used to use Wilwood 570 in my F440 car and thought I'd give it a try in the Spitfire since it has a higher boiling point than the Valvoline.
