Re: Single brake reservoir to duals on a Protoform P2

Mark - I was thinking the compact ones right on top of the cylinder.

Brian - a single cylinder is great until you lose a brake line. My braking typically is fine with the current set-up. My question is only from a safety stand point.

Single brake reservoir to duals on a Protoform P2

I currently have a single brake reservoir on my Protoform P2. Has anyone converted their P2 to dual reservoirs? Is there enough room/clearance?

I would look, but the car is apart and the frame is at paint.

Thanks,

Craig

Get gauges for the set up then add 1 brake sensor to get your data later. Saves $80 and saves a channel on the dash

Re: Brake pressure

yeah i have the aim dash - hadn't even thought of that actually. i was going to use the numbers for setup only until your post. i'll probably go analog for setup and aim for data.

Brake pressure

Looking at brake bias gauges - some top out at 1000 and some at 1500 psi. To buy the right one I need to know, what do our cars put out for peak pressure?

Or am I better off going all Spinal Tap and getting the one that goes to 2000 psi so I will have better braking?

I will get some pictures up this weekend. It has the body and toolbox in it, so I need to clean it out. Unfortunately, I ruptured my biceps tendon on Monday at a hockey game. Therefore I need my wife to help move everything.
