That's why you need the check valves, there not much $$ and easy to install.

Yes I agree the check valves are needed but still out of experience even with the check valves installed over time this will still occur so make sure you pump up tour brakes before you put it in gear

I, too have juice brakes on both my A s . I'm kind of ambivalent about them. Although I refuse to spend the time or money to change them back. Each of my cars has a different activation system. On the Town Sedan the mounting plate is out side the frame. It has been welded to the frame (Not the way I'd do it) And uses the brake activation rod and some custom made linkage. The coupe was done with a plate bolted to the cross member and reversing the arm on the brake pedal so that depressing the pedal causes the linkage travels backwards. For pics, go to my profile and look in my 30 TS and My 30 Coupe. Also, for master Cylinders, I bought 2 dual GM cyls from Speedway for about $ 35 each. Google Speedway Motors.
