Title: VH44 Booster Post by: 2tone on June 29, 2002, 08:01:44 AM I am unsure of the setup using this booster is it ok to keep the single system or do i need to get another master cylinder with twin lines(front rear) using HR discs

ITS OK TO KEEP THE SINGLE CIRCUIT BRAKING SYSTEM. HAVE A LOOK AT A HR (SINGLE CIRCUIT) DISC BRAKE SET UP. REGARDS ACE 8) Title: Re: VH44 Booster Post by: Digger on June 30, 2002, 11:39:53 PM Hi 2tone,
Yes you can run a single circuit, but the VH 44 has only 820.psi output pressure which is only enough pressure to opperate 4 wheel drums, or you can split the system with a 1" bore tandem master cylinder and boost the front disks only. But you will still need a lot of effort on the brake peddle to pull the car up. You should use a VH40L booster which runs 1470psi output pressure with a crack pressure of 25psi with this booster you can run the single system but you will have to install a proportioning valve in the line to the back brakes or reduce the rear wheel cylinder size. Hope this helps Steve. |
