Glad you got it sorted out and thanks for the update. I've decided to replace all of my master cylinders and I was about to start researching what sizes would be ideal. I have the same calipers that you do, so I suppose Tilton's advice would also work for me.

Guess if I ever need help with my Wilwood BRAKES, I'll be sure to ask if they have anyone on the tech helpline staff who knows brakes and hydraulics!
Nice work by the Tilton techie.

I had a problem with some Wilwood brake rotors a few years ago. They item did not match the print they had online. I called their tech support. She said she would check and get back with me.

Two days later, she calls and says "I went back and looked at the ones on the shelf. They are all that way, so they are correct." I explain again the problem as the actual part does not match the print. She tells me the print is wrong because all the rotors look that way.

I gave up and returned them. Summit had a set on the shelf when I returned them and we compared those. They had been on the shelf for about a year. They matched the print.

Would probably work but check which superlites you have. Mine came with the smaller pistons (1.38") I think the newer ones have a 1.75". either way I would double check.

I am also running a pedal ratio of 6:1

I had the same thing and found one of the calipers was bad. Only after it seized and nearly started a fire leading to my first snake bite as I exited the car with my fire extinguisher. Pretty scary!
