    So I'm putting this up on a few boards, I need lots of input before I jump into spending all sorts of time (and a little money). So lets here it.

    Does anyone know of a place to purchase flexible braided lines in various custom
    lengths with my own selection of tips on the end, so as to avoid having to bend line with flex spots?

    Has anyone had experience bending their own brake setups?

    What (if anyone) do people on this board think or have heard about TILTON brake accessories.


    VERY IMPORTANT: Does anyone know if anything changes the standard hydrolic principles of Non-compressive liquids when applied to non-abs braking systems??

    Does anyone here have experience with creation of braking systems including the tuning of dual master cylinder brake setups and proportioning valves involved in brake bias Adjustment?

    Any usefull information is welcome.

    thanks

    I'd suggest checking out anplumbing.com. They have the largest selection of -3 and associated hardware. They are a cool bunch of guys and are very willing to help you out.


    You hydraulic principles should not change with a lack of ABS. Our brake systems workthe same until ABS kicks in.


    A have a little experience with the brakes we were going to put on the Formula SAE car up in duluth. The rule require a dual master cylinder for saftey reasons. The way the brake pedal attached to the masters was going to be the bias adjustment, therefore a proportioning valve was not needed.

    Anyone know the pros and cons of using proportioning valves over angle adjustment?
