Default Re: Master Cylinder Bracket

Glenn is correct above in Post #8. You must maintain the pedal arm vs pushrod lever LENGTH ratio at something like 6 to 1 or even higher numerically (like 7 to 1) because anything less will make it nearly impossible to apply enough force to the pedal to get the car stopped. One other factor to consider...the pushrod that pushes on the M/C piston should push straight-into, or parallel with piston travel. If the pushrod pushes on the piston at an angle, the hydraulic seal at rear of M/C will end-up damaged (and leaking) in very short order. DD
