Installed on 54 Belair- Excellent Kit!
I installed this kit on my 54 Belair without any problems. Very nice kit which includes everything for disc brakes on the front of your original drum spindles. Very nice compliment to the Speedway Motors Firewall Booster/Master Cylinder kit Pt# 9101951!

Be cautious with purchase.
Kit seemed nice, installation took only 2 hours, when bleeding the brakes, discovered both caliber were bad, leaking. Trouble shot with different crusher washers, banjo bolts, brake lines, nothing worked. Called support and I wasn't met with a solution, was told there was nothing I could do, ended up buying new calipers myself. But with this kit, rotors came warped, still squeaked after 300 miles of driving. Very disappointed.

Very simple kit and easy install. Probably had it wrapped up in 2 hours. However still fighting large leaks from the banjo area on both calipers. Tried multiple new crush washers. Thinking the caliper casting is cheap.

I have a 1949 chevy styleline deluxe with a stock front end. I installed a dual MC under floor so I could keep original look floor pedals. I sealed the MC, removing vents and installed a 1/4 inch nipple above each reservoir and installed a dual remote reservoir on firewall above steering column. My question is do I still need residual pressure valves? I am using four wheel drums.

I just bought this kit from you. Everything went in great except for the brake lines. The fittings are slightly too small to screw into the hard brake line. I know what thread the car line is. I need some help figuring out what thread is on the new brake line you sent me. Did I receive the wrong one? Can u please help me out. Ty.
