So when it's all said and done I'll have wilwood disk all the way around with 11.93" up front and 12" in the rear. Both calipers are 4 piston. I know you usually have bigger on the front vs the rear but it works out ok this way with my setup of 17's front and 18's on the rear. I'm not 100% sure about vacuum with my 408c since it hasn't been installed yet. I know other members here with a 408 with a similar cam not making the vacuum wilwood recommends with their units. I spoke to wilwood and got several recommendations as to what to use. In their opinion their units were designed to run with just a master and no booster. He did offer if I had to go booster there are a few out there that work well with their units but he couldn't ensure it would work with my engine vs vacuum.
He suggested their 7/8's bore cylinder for a good all around feel. I'm only familiar with boosted brakes. This will not be a track car so its just for fun cruising around town. For what it's worth the car also has a 5 speed manual with hydraulic clutch. I'm not really interested in a hydroboost or adding a vacuum pump. With not having any experience with wilwoods and manual brakes would my setup be enough and not be too much to drive to where its not fun? Leg force isn't really a problem in terms of my build but the Mrs would want to drive once in a while. Since my car came with power disk front and drum rear would I have to change anything with the pedal geometry to go to manual disk all the way around? Their master comes with the proportion valve. Thanks
