Default Making progress - it is now bolted in !

Hi Kevin - yes, this particular Hydratech manual to power brake conversion system #3007 / 3507 that you have is indeed designed to connect to the top hole in your brake pedal (the hole that you have been using in your previous manual brake scenario). I sent you a few tech PM's on the low pressure return line fitting connection. You are only returning about 2 tablespoons +/- of PS fluid "back home" to the PS reservoir every time you let off of the brakes, so it can technically be located anywhere you want to put the return line connection, which is why it will even work appropriately using the T fitting method.

It sounds like you're getting closer and closer, but it (sucks) to hear that your arrangement is forcing you to yank the PS pulley off of the pump to make the high pressure PS output line connection, and then having to rework your fuel line for a power brake scenario versus the previous manual brake package. If you get the new MC bench bled out properly, you CAN gravity bleed the brake system yourself by the way... But, maybe, just maybe, you might be able to take your beast out for a healthy pound session this weekend and enjoy some absolutely wicked braking (which makes the brake pedal just as much fun as the gas pedal) (!)
