You ever try any other method?
I’ve been running weber’s since ’87 after Gary Hall talked me into it after giving me a ride in a 1937(?) Chev Coupe with weber’s that he had. I’m also not running any vacuum from my manifold; I use a Wildwood peddle/master cylinders for both brake & clutch.
-No Sir. Do you know of another method?
I don't know of running just full mechanical brakes in my Pantera. At one point I had converted to them on my GT350. The end result is that the mechanical system was providing about the same amount off pressure to the calipers as the stock power brake system was.
The mechanical system was easier to deal with as far as avoiding locking up the brakes.
I talked to and dealt with Gary on many occasions. I miss the bugger. He would always say in the end, "do what you want. Don't listen to me. I'm just 'peckerwood'!
His solution to 48 IDA's was to reduce the size of the auxiliary venturi (aka chokes) to 32 mm. Simply stated, with that change it simply isn't the same system any more.
Jim Inglese "suckered me into Webers) in 1978. He knew I would become addicted to them. SOB.
