Yup,,,,were in the same boat all right!

Again your specs are virtually identical to mine, with one or two exceptions. My stopping power BEFORE they start to fade is great, you GOT to have a tight seat belt! I never tried but I think I could darn near lock up the tires even at high speed. Four wheel disc, by the way, prop valve setup with a lot of bias toward the rear. THEY lock up first depending on "load" factors (helps on some of the tight corners I have to deal with). I'm running a stock Ford master cylinder.

I get VERY little warning the brakes are about to go! THATS the scary part, their good, good and then BAM there gone! Almost hit the wall the first time or two that happened, before I figured out how to "feel" them going away.

Is your pedal staying hard? What about 11" rotor but VENTED?? Hate to spend the money and find out it was only a "moderate" gain in performance! Been there done that all ready!
