Re: [DeTomaso] Top of radiator connected to swirl tank (It doesn't go to the swirl tank)
by Chuck and Linda Huber 23 Sep '16

Here's the other shots of my tanks. These mods were fabricated up by W-Wadeco Inc. (Wade Musil of Tucson, AZ) #8 shows the brass elbow on the top of the swirl tank. The pressure cap was removed and the top sealed up. Actually, Wade built me a complete new swirl tank. #9 shows the two "inlet fittings" on the top of the expansion tank. Wade fabricated this entire tank as well. #10 shows the mounting in the bay. The plumbing is not hooked up in this picture. Chuck Wade may be on this board. If so, I want to thank him again for the fine work. -----Original Message----- From: Joseph F.

Rear stock calipers sticking
by Rob Dumoulin 22 Sep '16

22 Sep '16

I just installed the Wilwoods on the front mount of the back brake and left the stock calipers on the rear mount as a parking brake. The hydraulics are not hooked up to the stock calipers and instead there is a fitting to allow the slave cylinder to breath normally but not gather dirt. The parking brake has in the past not released fully and I've just grown accustomed to not using it. While it all was apart, i tried to figure out why. The parking brake cable bracket on the caliper can be pushed back with some effort, but it does not move freely and the spring has little effect on it. Is that normal and if not, what might be the remedies? Thanks! I just installed the Wilwoods on the front mount of the back brake and left the stock calipers on the rear mount as a parking brake.
