Re: Willwood, Strange or Aerospace?
Mark Williams on my 68 SS/AH Barracuda. Used M/W on 3 other race cars also, never a problem.

Given those choices, Strange. All day long.

Re: Willwood, Strange or Aerospace?
Lamb big bucks, but worth it. Install them and never worry about brakes again.

Re: Willwood, Strange or Aerospace?
Pedal travel is not the brand. SMH
Simple hydraulics. Some seem to need a simple take it all out of a box & bolt it on kit.

Re: Willwood, Strange or Aerospace?
It should be a simple calculation of piston area and master cylinder bore. But I've seen more than one car with Aerospace kits that should have worked, but didn't. Could not get a pedal, even with a big bore master, until a Lamb master was installed.
And I've seen guys get kits from Wilwood with calipers that had small bores for some reason (ordered wrong part# maybe) and the balance would be all out of whack. Strange has always been plug and play. |

Re: Willwood, Strange or Aerospace?
Installed mine back in 2010, before I closed my shop. I don't know what another brand could do, that these do not. No pedal is not the brand. Wrong pedal ratio, or master cylinder bore. I was warned once about "smoking all 4 tires at the finish line." Didn't realize I locked them up. Wheels roll freely, good pedal, plenty of breaking power.
What else is there? Maybe they changed something.

Re: Willwood, Strange or Aerospace?
I'll have to concur with Ed...Aerospace being used on three different cars and no problems over the years. I would not expect any problems out of the other brands as well.
