Hey Paul, you don't think I would consider any "radical" braking mods without
first looking at your web site would you! <grin>
I've been kicking this around for a while and did hit your site to see the
photos, and you may remember a while back you emailed me some info on the same
subject.
Thanks for your excellent site. The only thing I'm not sure about, what's a
"jink", just kidding. That must be a highly technical British term (hehehe).
If the rest of you don't know what I am talking about you need to hit Paul's web
site, http://www.mgb-stuff.org.uk/ , and drill down to "spanners", "V8 info",
"Brakes". Or something like that.
Thanks again Paul
Larry Hoy
