[DeTomaso] Wilwood Brakes WTF????

[John Buckman]

Side note: What are the residual pressure valves doing in your system?
They don't seem to belong there at all.

>>>As I recall, I think that this was a Wilwood recommendation (and maybe others ?).  It is supposed to keep the 
pads a few microns closer to the rotor, saving the driver a microsecond (or two) when applying the brakes.  I
would think that having the residual check valves would have a slightly negative impact on pad and rotor 
cooling, but it may be what's needed to keep full race pads at "friction" temps.
