Seeking ideas concerning what may be causing the car to pull to the left when braking.

Hello.

I am experiencing a trouble, as the car pulls to the left as soon as brakes are at "normal" temperature - i.e. not cold.

My braking system is stock, tires are new XWX on original wheels (this is a '72 Pantera).

When I quickly press the pedal at moderate speeds, the steering wheel immediately rotates to the left. Therefore, I thought of a dissymetrical braking action, and decided to overhaul the two calipers with new seals and pistons : unfortunately, no noticeable change occured, and the car still pulls to the left under braking.

Today, I did another test, and noticed that the front left wheel center was very very hot, and the right one wasn't, so I'm still thinking of a brake / pressure issue, but can't figure out what could be the root cause...

What do you think I am missing ? 

Thank you in advance for your help.

Matt
