[Fot] Help Identifying this

Have not seen one since I installed one on my TVR Vixen 2500.  It worked to keep the fronts from premature lock up.  Those big TR6 brakes and boosted master cylinder were too much for a sub 2000 lb. car.

I do miss that thing though.

It's a "safety braker" & yes they do work.

That is an inline brake dampener. It is 1960's anti-lock. It absorbs the pulsing in the brake line and peddle due to things like a warped rotor or out of round drum. I used to use them back when I didn't have any money and raced with whatever junkyard parts I could cobble together.
They do in fact work.

Cheers,
Brian

Attached is a picture of something I used on my race car a long time ago, but now I can't remember what it was for.  Any ideas?  As you can see by the fittings on the sides, it was plumbed into the brake line.  That looks like a bleeder nipple on the bottom.

If anyone knows what this is, and would like to have it, send me your address and I will mail it to you.

Thanks.

Jack
