79 mustang T\SA. I have stock SN95 front disks, stock rear drums and a stock style 7\8 bore manual disk\drum master cylinder. The brakes are like pushing on a brick. Really hard, They work but have a hard time holding the car at the tree.
Any ideas other than after market break system? I need to work with what i got. I would consider a new master but even the Willwood is 7\8 bore.
I thought about making my brake peddle a inch or two longer for more leverage.
I looked at moving the pushrod pin up higher but the way the master is I think it might bind.
Any ideas? Help please!
