Hi guys, I'm a 'lurker' looking for some guidance and some 'stock' spec detail.
My 100-6 BN6 is in the midst of a resto-mod nasty-boy build (at Jule Enterprises / Martin Jansen). Have put in a Ford 302 bored and stroked to 331 putting out approximately 400 hp and 400 ft-lbs, pushing through a Tremek TKO 5 speed and narrowed Ford 8 inch rear end.
I am upgrading the brakes. The rear end already has Ford 11.2 inch discs (2000 Explporer single 1.8 inch diameter piston calipers with inclcuded emergency brake), and I plan to put in a set of Wilwood vented discs and calipers in front (11.75 inch rotors / 4 pistons at 1.75 inches ea).
I am trying to avoid adding power assist to the system - prefer to accomplish same effect with higher ratio pedal assemblies. Stock pedal ratio is apparently 5:1, and 6:1, 6.25:1 and 7:1 are all commercially available. Also intend to incorporate a 'modern' tandem-dual master cylinder and
proportioning valve.
Does somebody have a set of the specifications for the 'best-performing' stock AH 100/3000 power assisted and non-assisted systems (master cylinder diameter and stroke, front and rear piston diameters)? Want to compare math of a well performing stock combination to what I might apply in new system.
Also, any comments or suggestions from anyone who has followed the path I have suggested (pedal ratio increased rather than power assisted to facilitate delivering stopping power) would be most appreciated...
Regards,
Mark
