Racing master cylinder
Has anyone used a unboosted tilton or similar brake master in place of the stock unit. Would it be realistic to do this on a track only car with the brembo set-up? The reason i ask is as I am tying the front shock towers with a brace running back to the dash bar on the roll cage. It will be tight to get the brake booster in after these are in place. I figure I can keep the clutch as is and add a separate resvoir for it.

Sorry, ....Back to your brakes....I am building a track car and investigated the tilton option. These are great units, but will require major firewall modifications. For simplicity and reliability, I bought the S4 master cylinder and replaced the brake lines on my 1978 to a more conventional front/rear braking rather than the stock diagonal set up. The s4 master can handle the big red calipers up front and the s4 calipers in the rear. FYI. There was a blue 928 track car for sale in the Rennlist posts...For $17,000 I would buy that car rather than go through what I have for the past year. It is a lot of work!!
