I recently did a front disc conversion with a Dr.Diff 11.75” brake kit and his stock a body dist/prop valve and used a Right Stuff 15/16” bore MC. I had to make all new lines because they were all siezed in my 50 year old drum distribution block. Everything bled great and I had a great pedal. Then when I went to bed the pads, after 4-5 hard stops from 60mph to around 15mph the pedal goes limp noodle and spongy and needs pumped up. I rechecked all my lines, found 1 tiny fluid weep at the front inlet to the prop/dist block from the MC and tightened it, rebled and tried again, same deal, but no fluid leaks this time, anywhere. Dry as a bone. This only seems to happen on hard braking when you push it excessively hard like a panic brake situation, where it is depressed rather far. If it is just easy stop and go, my pedal feels fine, but on a hard, quick stop it needs rebled again. I think it might be my MC, but I really hope not because it’ll be a pain to remove since its the bolts that hold the pedal assembly on too, I might go and buy the 2 to 4 bolt adapter if I have to do it again. Any tips from the gurus on here? I’m at my wits end and just want to drive the old girl with her all new suspension with adjustable everything and boxed LCAs. Also Sorry its not an A body, I asked on the B Body forum too. My dad sold his dart long ago. I’m looking into 67-69 Barracudas though
