The new car cover straps seem to be working well. We had about 36 hours of solid winds and the cover stay on just fine. It did shift about 6" from one side to the other so I think I will put the other two straps on to run under the middle of the car. We are expecting 30-45 mph winds starting tomorrow through Sunday night and this will be a good test for it.

Think it'd scratch the car?
 
Heading to Chi Town tomorrow morning for the Mcacn show. Any of you guys going?

Well the hunting decision has been made, I ain't going. Forecast changed to severe thunder storms from dawn till dusk, 30 - 35 mph substained winds and gusts up to 60 mph possible. Ain't sitting in no tree stand for that one

And you call yourself a hunter....why back in the 1900's I walked up on a nice buck in a pouring down rain. LOL

The pressure produced from the master cylinder is the same at each port so where each one goes doesn't really matter as long as they are proportioned correctly front and rear.

Only thing is the reservoir size. Real small to the front with 4 piston disc brakes. Have to keep an eye on it....

When dual reservoir master cylinders originally made it onto the scene, one of the reservoirs was much larger than the other. This was generally considered the reservoir for the drum brakes due to the sheer volume of fluid needed to push the brake shoes out followed by the return of all that fluid back to the master cylinder. Disc brakes didn’t require the same volume in the reservoir. Today, most master cylinders have the same size reservoir as well as masters sharing the same reservoir. These are still considered dual reservoir systems because the internals are separated front to

Then there is this

The conflicting information is because some of the original systems used a dual stage piston with the one for the rear pushing a larger volume than the one for the front. Almost all newer ones are a single stage piston which pushes the same amount of fluid front and rear, but at different pressures to the wheels as regulated by the proportioning valve.
