Master cylinder for dual caliper brakes
Putting dual caliper brakes on my new dragster...
I'm thinking of using a tandem master cylinder and plumbing the forward calipers to one port and the rear calipers to the other port...
Kinda having 2 individual brake systems...I understand there's only one master cylinder this way but....
Also I thinking of using a 7/8" bore MS...My pedal ratio is 6-1,,,,.the calipers are Strange B5002 and B5004 with 2 different puck sizes ....

I'd use two separate ones....dual config can still fail...and generally valving is different from front to rear, because of how brakes are applied on a car....

like mark said x2,and that is a lot of brakes on rwo wheels all at once.i had a friend who did that and it was easy to slide the wheels
