Default Dual MC for 41

Well finally decided on this MC for the 41. Not much room down there or any dual without remote fluid pots.

Have a corvette one now but hard to check the fluid level.

Default Re: Dual MC for 41

I mounted a dual Ford Torino, fitting towards the center of the car, to my stock '41 pedal. Used an adapter from Chassis Engineering. Spaces the M/C back a couple inches, 3 bolt to 2 bolt. Had to lengthen the pedal to M/C rod.Worked good.

Do not forget to test the system when you're done! With everything bled and ready to go, crack open a bleeder screw on the front. Roll forward at a slow pace and nail the brakes. If the back tires don't slide, you have a problem! Keep the pedal down and have an assistant tighten the bleeder (this way you don't have to bleed again). Repeat on the rear, and the front tires must lock up or you still have a problem!
The safety feature of a dual master cylinder only activates at the bottom of pedal travel, maybe a half inch from the floor. If the pedal bottoms out on the floor before the master cylinder reaches the end of its stroke, you will have no brakes, period!
