Hi All,
I just got a cap front end installed on my 67 dart street/race car....car weights 3120lbs without driver...it is the coilover and rack and pinion set up.I also changed the 73 and up disc brakes for a set of strange drag race brakes part # B-4160wc the car has the mopar performance aluminium master cylinder and a willwood adjustable proportioning valve the rear brakes are 10" stock drums.The problem I am having is on even the shortest trips the rotors get hot and they get glazed hot spots on them and the pads get real smooth from this...I feel the steering wheel vibrate pretty bad!! I had the rotors turned,new pads from strange and the proportioning valve turned all the way down.It still is doing this If i hadn't already sold the stock stuff I would just give up on the race brakes!! I taked to strange and they said the car is to heavy for this brake set up,and they only sell 1 type of pads for these calipers.
