So I got the brakes on, and driving. They work ok, but probably not like they should.

Just recently Ive heard about possibly needing a better master cylinder than the stock one, since it may not have enough umph for the new calipers.

Those of you that have disc brakes, did you change the master cylinder? and to what? and where did you mount it? Milo sent me a link to a past forum that Ed Tavernier mentioned he had a stock MC and Ray told him what to do and they work great, and he can lock up the brakes. Anyone know what the secret is?? Id really like to not hafta change my MC and keep the stock one, if I can find out what Ray told Ed
