I put 1973 Duster brakes on my 64 Sport Fury. Was never impressed with the stopping power. replaced all flex lines. no better. Found the 11 3/4 brackets and put them on with 1976 Aspen calipers which are larger than the Duster caliper. The 15/16 piston MC (new) from the Duster would not move enough fluid with the larger calipers bought a 1 11/32 MC and got my pedal back.The problem is not air in the lines. There is just not enough stopping power. If I power brake the car it will overcome the brakes around 1200 rpm with a stall converter. Any thoughts? should I go back to the smaller calipers and MC ? I have the prop valve from the duster, and just double checked the way the lines go in with a pic from another thread. Should I get rid of the prop valve and go with an adjustable one?
