Heh... thanks Beau! The staging brake does give more clamping force, but what is important, is that it gives it consistant clamping force. ALso, i can install a line-lock on it, and while at the line, i can preload my clutch a lot more than i could before... better launches, less breakage, etc. Its well worth the expense. Only problem, is that now you have to drive the car like a motorcycle. Your foot brake operates the fronts, and the staging brake operates the rears... fun stuff

Here's another pic of that manifold for ya... all cleaned up this time:

 

have you done any high speed brakings yet i did a few in my car(front brakes only also) like 85 to 10 and it felt ok with out using the e-brake but again on the strip i dont really slam the brakes at all just kinda slow down nice and easy.

Beau

ps nice manifold

 

It should be fine... the front brakes do most all the braking anyway. This car hasn't been driven though in over 3 years... it's been a garage queen for some time now.. hehe.

 

Dang, another awesome setup !!

I like it

 

That sh*t looks evil.... mommy !

 

Does that manifold let you keep your A/C? Hahaha! Just kiddin' man. Awesome setup though. ---- looks clean as hell.

 

looks good john... what happen to the other manifold idea you had give a call to the shop and talk to angel about tuning it if you are still interested, he can give you a price quote... 4072928144
i wanna see this thing run man ist been a long long time.... maybe i will put my car back together next month....

 

Beautiful!

 

Again, thanks everyone for the nice compliments

BoostedED9: I'll let y'all know about the dynoing of the car, but i'm still unsure as to where i want to take it for tuning. I can't wait to see it run though... ought to be very fun... heh.
