Im ready to order my tilton 600 series floor mount so I can get rid of the 'cobbled' together brake system and booster in my car. I have the lindsey #8 kit, big blacks and 996tt rotors. Any suggestions on bore sizes from the guys who have done this? PS: 700/900lb springs, turbo 86 rears, no proportion valve.

Gotta say it, love the alcantara dash. Looks so clean and classy

Thanks for posting those pics mate, it was exactly what I was looking for to mount mine; and its RHD as well!

Where are you guys sourcing your tilton 600 setups from? I am thinking about ditching the firewall mount system and convert to the floor mount as well on the V8 car.

I ordered mine through Summit, with a bunch of LS1 parts, for convenience.

Here's my setup.




Tilton 600 setup with a 3/8" aluminum plate bolted to the floor and side sill and a custom dead pedal. Moves my seating position 4" rearward which works only because I'm 5' 7".

Nice Rich! This looks like something that could work for me as well :-)

+1 very nice fit out!

Check out this thread also. A local friend of mine has a pretty slick setup with a Tilton 600 series clutch and brake assembly. The pedal is for the electronic throttle for the LS3 crate motor, so disregard that .

They detailed some of the install also, but from what i remember they modified the firewall a little so that it wouldn't push the seating position too far back.

Are you guys running the compact tilton series 75 master cylinders or something else?

edit: I found the new series 76 from tilton now has a top AN port for the brake line, which would provide a bit of extra room vs having to attach the fitting to the back of the cylinder against the firewall. The lengths are the same as the series 75, so I think that is the way to go.

Still wondering about slave sizes, have the big black fronts from lindey and turbo rears. Clutch size also. I want to order my parts

PorscheDoc

I want to say the clutch master stock size from memory is 3/4. I think the V8 guys move to a 7/8" IIRC.

I run 3/4" front and 7/8" rear Wilwood compact masters. This with BigRed front and 944 turbo rear calipers. The clutch master is a 1" but that's with the v8 conversion.

Rich, thanks for that. Big Blacks are the same as Big Reds right? Im running 86 turbo rears and also a LS conversion. Are you running the factory proportioning valve with those bore sizes or it that removed from your system? Why do the V8 guys want a bigger clutch bore? I believe I have a factory clutch master now until I switch to the 600 pedals.

I know Lanny was at the track this year with a new pedal assembly and I should have asked the details about what he was running then.

rlets

Yes, BigBlack and BigRed are the same piston sizes so we've got the same calipers. I ditched the hydraulic proportioning valve and use the balance bar on the pedal.

The clutch master was tricky for me. I started with a 13/16" like lots of the guys have used with the factory pedal but I couldn't get good clutch release. Changing up to the 1" made things work but the effort is pretty high.
