I like it alot better so far. If I we're to guess, the pedal is about 15% -20% harder. Let me get a race and more miles under my belt. The pedal ratio is 12:1 for a manual brake set up in a 69. Most reccomend a minimum of 8:1 for a manual set up with the proper master cylinder. I personally feel the 7/8 is undersized for the caliper piston volume. I wish I would've done this 2 years ago.

Tyler is correct, I did use them. Thanks Frank. My only regret at this point is not slicing the tunnel for more trans to tunnel clearance. When I had the old steel block in the car I also had the coil over adjusters as high as I could physically get them. (Small block springs) I was able to back them down a turn or two for the aluminum block. I thought them LSX motors were light?
