Rob:<br>
I really like my 10 and 3/4? front brakes, I used this size as I still <br>
have 13 inch wheels. The setup work very well as I have a Wilwood <br>
proportioning valve to adjust front to rear effort to my driving style, or perhaps <br>
lack of. One problem I have is that I use a 1980 Subaru Brat M/C to gain a <br>
dual chamber master, this has turned out to be the weak link. While I got <br>
plenty of help from Wilwood Tech about setup, when I asked for then to <br>
recommend a dual chamber M/C I have not heard back and it?s been over a year. I <br>
drive the car fairly regularly, it runs and stops great, brake pedal is <br>
soft on initial press of pedal. Brakes have been bled several times and the <br>
M/C does not leak and no fluid has been lost. I do need a line on a better <br>
Master. The great is quite fast and I would say my stopping confidence for <br>
me driving is about 80 to 85% sat. My son told me the pedal is too mushy <br>
for him. My wife will not drive it yet, so just my oldest son and I have <br>
driven it. So th<br>
is needs<br>
attention. I am still looking. <br>
The actual caliper setup with drums on the rear is awesome for street use <br>
and maybe when a new M/C is fitted something a little more, noting the car <br>
is very fast!<br>
By the way I used Classic tube hard lines for the car except for the M/C <br>
connections in the engine bay to the valve, they are custom bent. I would <br>
use this method again for another Tiger, but it would have to be Midnight <br>
Blue (58)!!!<br>

Jim,<br>
<br>
Have you had a large amount of driving experience with the front Wilwood <br>
and rear drum brake setup?<br>
I am considering that same brake combination and also whether to convert <br>
the rear brakes to Wilwood disks with Dale's kit.<br>
What I'm trying ta assess is how much better the front only conversion is <br>
in comparison to the stock Tiger brakes and also the full conversion to the <br>
front only Wilwood disks. Any advice on what you may have learned would <br>
be very helpful.<br>

I seem to continue to receive info from you folks. I would offer that as <br>
a former member of facebook, I utilize and appreciate and use this list <br>
almost daily, sometimes even add when I have something to offer.<br>
As for social media, consider this, I closed my facebook account over 2 <br>
years ago when they were exposed conducting an experiment posting positive <br>
and negative info to selected facebook members as an unannounced experiment, <br>
really, I personally do not need to be part of this BS nor will I. <br>
<br>
<br>
Here is the result of your contributions to my restoration effort, a 1966 <br>
Mark1(a) Tiger with a modified 260, posit track rear-end, Wilwood front <br>
discs, stock rear drums, a really nice car, oh yes, Martha C. interior.<br>
So thanks and let?s consider this one of the reasons to keep going.<br>
