[quote=EV271]This thread has such great information, I had to resurrect it. Plus I am also having brake issues with my recently restored 71 Cuda(disc/drum). When car is cold front wheels spin with light drag, after a trip around the block BOTH front wheels are impossible to spin(locked up).
Do you think this is a booster arm adjustment?
Too much fluid?

I a 71 Cuda come in doing this, changed everything did same thing you describe after hot, people told guy it was the headers, the line lock, had the proper .020 pushrod clearance, it was the reman master cylinder causing it. Put a new bendix on problem solved, but this master looks wrong for a resto. Might be something better out there now

^^^^@440-6 you could be right. I recently replaced master, with reman. unit. But I also didnot adjust booster arm.

Any ideas on a correct master for 71 hemicuda?

How do you subscribe to a thread? I don’t see the link?

I bought a reman for my 71 6bbl cuda at carquest, looks right and it works, original cover fits it. They are now owned by advance so that may have changed, or it could change daily. Most stuff is cardone brand, hit and miss. I rooted thru the local carquest warehouse and got that master ,a pair of 1970 date coded calipers, and a set of 1971 date coded calipers, that were NICE, no rust pits. People are sending there old cores in I guess, worked for me.
