Re: 3 Pedals

The three cylinder setup from Wilwood is ingenious. The brakes use two individual cylinders side by side. There is a horizontal cross rod linking the two MCs together. If a fitting was installed in the center of this rod to accept the brake pedal's push rod, applying the brake pedal would depress both cylinders with equal pressure. Well, this fitting in the center is actually threaded so as to be able to move side to side. This gives infinate proportioning for the brake system. Very easy to dial in front/rear bias of the brakes. The tinkering (cheap) side of me chose to go another route but I liked the wilwood engineering.
