"I intercepted the brake line to the rear, and spliced in a Wilwood hydraulic knob...an attenuator.
I run excessive pressure to the rears with the threaded rod pulled out to the left (at the pedal). I had to cut off several threads to get enough…"

"Nice shots, Alan.
One size up makes a HUGE difference in travel/effort. If you're at the point where you can lock 'em up, you're real close.
What are you doing about bias adjustments on the fly?
Thanks for the update."

"If I read this right, you went from 5/8" to 7/8" up front...bypassing the 3/4"...a pretty big jump. Based on your feedback, it looks like you nailed it. Congrats.

"WOW! Driving to and from the track, no less.
VERY IMPRESSIVE, Charles.
Contratulations...you make us all proud.
Links to photos would be appreciated.

"I did this same scenario for my Lister when I went with the remote bias lever on the dash. I had the same long pedal you described with it juuuuust able to lock 'em up with the pedal just millimeters off the floor. I went only ONE size up, and I hit…"
"That's my bleeder, too. Agree...one of the best tool purchases I've ever made. I took an old master cylinder cap, drilled it, and put a nipple on it."
"I bought a hand-pump pressure bleeder, and love it.
Unless the lines are growing (have somebody push the pedal and grab each line...you'll feel it), it sounds like either air or silicone fluid. I don't use silicone. DOT4 Castrol for this old-school…"

"Sweet! Unless they're way off and it's dangerous, I'd wait till you get them well bedded before you playing with sizing. Then, after they're nice and hot, dial in the bias till the fronts lock sliiiiighty before the rears...the sliding end will…"
"Good job, guys! Those tilt front ends show soooooo nicely.
As soon as we get some Hollywood producer to use one prominently in a movie, people will start asking if Cobras are Listers.;-)
...trouble is, producers have a bad habit of destroying…"

Hey Everybody,I got "Lister Bob" and "Woody" -- from Donovan Engineering -- to chat it up on camera the other day after a photoshoot. They covered ideas/concepts in detail that normally go…
"I've always liked the aero Ray Dots, too. I think that's why Lister Bob offers the brackets without mirrors.
There's something to be said for horizontal convex glass AT THE OUTER EDGE.
When I imported gray-market cars back in the 80's, we took…"

"Nice work, looks period albeit more street car oriented. I would prefer something a little more Raydot-like but then again I would also like to get rid of the windscreen frame altogether and have a more original aero screen."
Guys,I seem to remember a discussion about the problem we're all having with our mirrors, but it may have been prior to launching this group.Well, "Lister Bob" has come up with a simple, elegant, aerodynamic solution. A polished bracket attaches to…
"Bob, I found this in my old notes. To be sure, others should confirm this.
8" rims and a measured backspacing of about 6.25".
10" rear wheels have a measured back spacing of about 7.25"."

"Welcome aboard Paul.
This is a fun group, and we're always eager to see new ways of doing things and share designs. So, don't be bashful about sharing...lots of open minds here.
Photos and videos are always appreciated...especially in-car video.…"

"Welcome aboard, Kevin! I'm glad Alan found you.
You're going to love this group. Our toys run the gamut from early lightweight track rats to pristine works in progress.
For that matter, they're all works in progress, and everyone is eager to learn…"
