Nice enough for the price-but has some issues
May be a bit early to review this product as I only have it installed. Not yet bled or operated.
I bought this as part of a manual drum to power disc conversion kit. Yes, mostly Chinese knock-offs but that was expected
Booster and Master Cylinder:
-The proportioning valve mount absolutely does not fit on my '65 Chevelle. It hits the inner fenderwell in a big way and could not be used. I fabricated a new mount down low, above the frame rail, which I think looks better having it more out of sight. This could be solved for all vehicles with a mount UNDER the master cylinder.
-Instructions contradict my research about M/C bore and brake pedal ratio's. All the math says I should have an 1-1/8" bore and I should be using the upper hole in my pedal. Kit has a 1" bore master cylinder and with the angle of the booster mount, I can not persuade the clevis to hook to the upper hole. To be fair, I'm assuming Speedway knows what they're doing since this is all part of a complete conversion kit, and the instructions specifically say to use the lower hole (which lines up fine), So I have my fingers crossed it works as it should.
Drum to Disc Conversion:
A few concerns here. Again, I've only installed and not yet operated.
-All wheel bearings and seals are made in China. I spent a bit more and replaced them all with TImken for peace of mind. Speedway should do this.
-The calipers appear to be replicas of the GM model. Close but not quite. Where the flex brake hose connects to the caliper has the hose pointing straight up (vs to the rear). This puts a goofy gooseneck in the hose that interferes with the a-arm when turning and possibly the rim if you have a deep backspace. BAD IDEA that could wear thru the hose causing brake failure and injure someone. Consider this a warning.
Overall:
-OK for the $ but next time I will seek piece it together with GM parts etc.
