Reply to "Wilwood Brakes - Component #'s??"

I purchased the "Street" upgrade Wilwood system from Pantera Performance a couple of years ago. It was the best investment I have made in the car.
I had seen the basic components in Summit etc. and it appeared that I could do better than the kit price. However, the more I got into it the more questions I had on selection of components. Shoot, there are at least a half dozen "street" pads alone. In the end I went with Dennis' system and am glad I did. I got a master cylinder, anti-bleedback valves, brake lines, brake pads, hats, discs, calipers, brake pads, fluid, bolts, and more importantly, mounting brackets that were correctly chosen and crafted for performance and balance. When I had trouble with my upgraded master cylinder and brake booster, help was a phone call away. When I had leaks in the new master cylinder lines (that I had to craft myself) once again, the answer was a phone call away.
When I added up the difference in price, there was no way I would have come out ahead.
Just the mounting brackets and advice were worth more than the difference.
Dennis' price was the best on the market and the brakes are just great. Very progressive with pedal force and vastly superior in grab to the originals when you need to stomp on them. The best part is, you get a system that has been tested and works together as it should. No guesswork.
I vote for an engineered package.
Mooso.
