I have read all of these posts about the brake problems, but they just seem strange to me. I have always felt that My Alpine (65 Series IV) had Excellent brakes. Very firm feel, great feed back, and

ATTA BOY RICH!! RIGHT ON!! I agree emphatically with almost everything you said Rich. Granted, you probably never hit the brakes going 130+ mph, but under most circumstances they can be made to work

I agree with you about stopping. The limiting factor is probably the tires. If you're locking up the rear brakes, it a sign of imbalance in pressure between the disc and drum brakes and a single ser

I have found the Volvo ones to be easy to work with. The early / middle 70's volvos had two per car, one for each rear brake. Take it, clean it, and replace the internal spring with one that's a litt

You know, maybe Rootes really did have enough sense to correctly proportion the rear wheel cylinder size to reduce the usual relative force the same high pressure that the disks require. Of course,

My old Alpine wouldn't hit 130 mph falling from the SKY, let a lone on the road. Nope, Most hard braking was down il on widy roads, at about 60 to 70 tops.... yes, I know, but there may be some NOS

I'll bet Laifman could put one of his aerodynamics experts on this problem. Surely we can manage a terminal velocity of better than 130 mph out of an Alpine. The test results would also be very usef
