I have 4 wheel disk brakes with a booster from Master Power Brakes and it falls short

[BigDuke6 17]

The current MC is a dual bowl reservoir from MP Brakes.  I am also running an electric vacuum pump and have a vacuum can but the pedal still goes soft at low rpm (Have a pretty big cam).  I want better stopping power  

would a Wilwood tandem MC connected to the booster give me better braking?  What about going to manual brakes and running two masters on one pedal ?

Jerry,  the tandem is just an inline dual resorvair MC, and uses an proportion valve instead of a bias bar to balance out the rear brakes (so that you don't get overamplification). I do not think the tandem MC provides more force output over the dual MC. I would either go for a manual setup or a Hydraboost setup, but you'll need a new MC either way. A small bore MC for manual brakes, and a the biggest bore MC you can find for a Hydraboost. I've ran Hydraboost, and it's great, but it adds a lot of stuff to the engine bay in form of hydraulic lines, and preferebly a cooler.

Ok Frode.  Thanks for the reply.  How is your car doing?  What about your brother’s mopar?

I'm making progress on the Mustang again. Probably gonna make a post on my buildthread again soon. My brother's 'cuda is doing great. Got some track time a month ago, first time with the Tremec T-56 and the Edelbrock Pro-Flo EFI, so that was fun. The car worked great all day, but had powerloss at the top end. So we're chasing that one. Think the fuel pump just ran out of juice (electrical that is), so we're trying another relay with much heavier gauge wires.

Thanks. I shot the picture on 06.27.2020. As you can see by the snow on the inside of the corner, the track is true to it's name. It's called the Arctic Circle Raceway, ACR for short. The track is located 19 miles south of the Arctic Circle. I live some 71 miles south of the Raceway. There was a lot of snow this winter, and the racetrack is  situated over an old quarry up in the hills. I don't remember the elevation right now. 

At my brother's flickr account you can see all the pictures I took that day.

The northernmost corner is also the highest corner on the track. It's called the North Pole. Pictured here.

In the bottom of that corner, a little left of the half-nude man (LOL) is the place where I had my crash with my Mustang.

Those are some great pictures.  Thanks for sharing 

2 things:

1. that CUDA is bad ASS!!

2. WTF ?? HAHA - The track is located 19 miles south of the Arctic Circle - that is a bit crazy to think about.  

 

Hope to get to see yours back on the track soon.
