Advice Wait, we're not done yet; there are several other problems with silicone: First, it is totally incompatible with glycol-based conventional brake fluids. Second, it's very hard to pour into the system without inducing air bubbles, making it hard to bleed.
Third, silicone may cause the ethylene propylene rubber seals used in most conventional brake systems to swell up and even fail. Fourth, don't even think of using silicone in an ABS system: Its higher compressibility and increased amount of pedal travel throw off the assumptions programmed into the ABS computer and sensors.
To have any chance of getting silicone to work long-term on a non-ABS system, you must totally remove any trace of conventional brake fluid, moisture, and air from the system-not a realistic proposition for the average home mechanic.
In theory, all the seals should also be replaced by silicone-compatible elastomers Viton is one possibility. Consider, as well, revising the brake pedal linkage, power booster, and master cylinder to compensate for the spongy pedal feeling.
Is there a better solution than silicone for racers and hot rodders? You bet: The original DOT 3 and 4 specs were formulated years ago and specify minimum dry and wet boiling points. The actual dry boiling points of aftermarket, nominally DOT 3 or 4, professional-level racing brake fluids can be considerably higher, but you will usually pay a premium price for them.
That's not critical for most racers as they frequently change their fluids but is an important consideration for a daily street driver. Also note that some of these fluids should not be mixed with parts store fluids check the specific manufacturer recommendations. If your Ford dealer has never heard of it, contact Ford of Upland. Any of these higher-end conventional brake fluids have a shorter-than-normal service life about two years on the street versus up to five years for typical parts store brake fluid.
Also, once you break the seal on any can of conventional glycol-based brake fluid, it starts absorbing moisture. Although still somewhat rare in the U. They can usually be mixed with older DOT 3 and 4 fluids with no detrimental effects other than a reduction of ultimate boiling points. The 5. AP Racing is one source for 5.
Bottom line: Leave the silicone fluid for the antique restoration guys or show car trailer queens who never really drive their cars anywhere. Brembo North America Inc. Minimum Brake Fluid Boiling Points The actual boiling point can vary higher by manufacturer see text. In general, the dry no moisture boiling point is more critical for race cars; the wet boiling point 3. Resto Mopar Exhaust Whose mufflers are on the undercarriage picture of the 'Cuda shown on page 96 of the Sept.
Bill Dilworth Via email. The exhaust system shown in the photo was supplied by two niche Chrysler exhaust system specialists: TTI offers the headers and cross-pipe; Accurate Exhaust Products sells the high-perf AAR 'Cuda mufflers, side pipes, and exhaust tips. Tube Technologies Inc. The cam GM PN has 0.
I believe this camshaft was used to increase the ZZ from hp to hp with lb-ft. Additionally, I would appreciate your recommendation for a fuel-injection system for this combination. The engine will be used in a '69 Camaro with a Tremec TKO five-speed transmission and a four-point rear with 3. The car will be street-driven. Tom Nickel Bayport, NY. A Gen VI big-block hydraulic roller cam physically fits into the earlier Mark IV block, but due to its different, stepped-nose configuration it must be used with a corresponding Gen VI timing chain set.
Also required are retrofit, guidebar-style, aftermarket hydraulic roller lifters and a hydraulic roller cam-compatible distributor-driven gear. With any roller cam, a forward thrust-limiting solution is required to regulate camshaft endplay. The traditional method on a Mark IV block was to select-fit an available aftermarket camshaft thrust button or bearing pressed into the upper timing sprocket's center recess that limits forward travel by bottoming against the inside of a reinforced front timing cover.
I mean, will it look weird to use the same series tires front to rear if the width of the rims do not match up? Essentially I want to have blackwalls and avoid a low-profile look. Can I run the same size front to rear or will the rear be domed out? The car will be lowered 3 inches all around, with a bit of a rake towards the rear. Joined: Aug 7, Posts: 3, Profile Page.
