Curious as to what system pressures you see and what type of gauges are used for this application? I have Mike Munson's rear disc brake convertion on my tr-6. I recently added bias gauges. The rear g

I'd see how true your rear disks are, a little wobble causes a lot of pressure variation. Rear wheels are also prone to a lot more hop as the weight shifts forward. Hard to see how that would make th

I broke the washer that goes between the circlip from hell and the third gear bushing on my TR6 gearbox. Don't ask. Suffice to say "stupid". At any rate, the folks at Moss had new ones in stock. So

I believe so, yes. Usual limit is more like .002", measured at the same distance from the edge. IOW it doesn't matter if the edge is thinner than the center, as long as the thickness is the same at

of course, on the straightaway those brake gauges should read zero; the time to look is when you are braking, just before turn in, doubleclutching, etc. Sounds like you need a data logger. Aw come on

Sorry for the late opinion, but I could not agree more with Mike Munson. I added brake bias guages to my cars many years ago and the only time I ever look at them is in the pits or on the grid for a

Don't forget to check the jam nuts in the pushrods that tie the balance bar to the cylinders too. Those coming loose lead to Bad Things. Like no brakes going into Big Bend and a subsequent trip upsid

Not trying to be intentially anal.. If you're seeing fluctuations on a pressure gauge, then something has to be causing the pressure differences. On a disc brake setup, normally that'd be the differe

I second that! Tony found a catch can that was used in a 50's-60's era sprint car at a swap meet. The can was too tall so he modified it to fit the battery box in my TR3. It's a work of art. Mark --O
