I got your package today, thanks. Ironically enough, I can't replicate the brake problem I had with the old calipers. I was pretty dead-set on a problem with the master or the check-valve. I was able to get the 1/2-sweep pedal drop problem on the street consistently with the sport brakes, now its gone. I guess I'm going to throw those sport brake calipers in the trash rather than give them to my sister.

dtc-30 in the front and for some reason Gary/TDR bullied me into putting black on the rear. I may end up returning them and running dtc-30 all the way around because I have the brake valve all the way open and the rears never lock.

IIRC, the willwood valve all the way in (tight) would ad more to the rears right? Maybe play with the valve a bit to see if you can get it a bit more neutral. Let me know how that works out for you.

Turning the valve counter-clockwise will decrease the amount of rear brake. Think of it as "righty rear, lefty fronty", meaning righty is more rear, lefty is more front. This is on my Wilwood valve, if you have something else then ignore me.

#4 injector is leaking at the rail and I have to fix it after I fly home form Santa Fe tomorrow, then go to the track in Austin on the following day. Can I pull the rail without removing the '99 intake plenum?
Thanks,
