I have Centerline Telstars on my car and its not that bad to retain the shine on a polished wheel. However I do believe chrome looks better and defiantly has alot more shine/bling. Like everyone said the polish is more a muscle car look. I think either would look good but I'd probably go with...
LOL Yeah it's stopable now and the yelling out the window might not be a bad idea. My suggestion would be if you can keep power brakes do it. If not defiantly get the wheel cylinders and a good set of brakes.
The wheel cylinders fit and the new brake pads are on and its now stopping alright. We are still going to work on it but at least its driveable. Thanks for all the help guys
pontiacgp - Yeah I think thats what I'm going to do tonight. I've just been so busy with working two jobs in the summer haven't had much time. I got some shows I want to go to this weekend so hopefully we can get it stopping tonight. It didn't make sense to me that they would be metric since so...
Yeah we ordered a set of Hawk Performance Brake Pads which are suppose to come into today so I'll let you guys know how it goes.
I read on raybestos site that the thread for M10-1.50 for a Cutlass Wheel Cylinder. Can't seem to find anywhere where it says they are 3/8-24
Yea we are sure we have the right master clylinder. We checked the pressure today at the master cylinder and was able to produce 1000-1200 psi without to much problems. At the front wheels my dad measured 1800-2000psi with a little gauge that took the place of the pad.
I am not sure...
Yes I understand that non-power is a bigger bore, allowing more fluid through it. My problem is a S-10 wheel cylinder has 3/8-24 threads and from what I can tell my cutlass has Metric M10-1.50 theads. I don't see how that is going to work out. Am I wrong in thinking I have the Metric threads.
Thanks for the help guys. I think we must just be doing something wrong. We are going to test the pressure at the wheels tonight or tomorrow. Maybe a bad master clylinder, who knows?
pontiacgp- do you have a link or a part number I could look up, again thanks for your help
Yes there are two holes and we already have it in the top hole. Like uncletruck said its not really safe at all to drive on the street. I drove maybe 2 miles yesterday and decided it wasn't worth crashing my car just to have it out and about.
SBC Regal - Do you know of anywhere that has...
Hey guys I recently swaped to manual brakes on my cutlass. I made my own block off plate and used a S-10 master cylinder. The brakes just don't feel that strong to me. I have been reading people are using larger wheel cylinders in the rear from an S-10 but my dad checked today and the threads on...
