Thanks for all your help and great info KULTULZ, I replied twice because I didn't see my first post not realizing we had gone to page two, should keep my eyes open in future. He bought two complete kits, the other for a 56 Ford Fairlane that he says we are not installing as the first was such a...

Thanks for all the help , neighbor says brakes are working much better, still not perfect. Car will be stored for winter

Single GM calipers , sold with kit, yes it cleared the manifold but not by much. Kit came with Chev proportioning valve and we installed a 10 pound residual valve in rear line, we are going to makeup a pressure gauge to see what master cylinder is putting out, we have tried two mc with no...
