I'm working on the brake hydraulics and have disc brakes on the front, later drum brakes on the rear, 3/4" bore master cylinders, sleeved, and the original Bugeye as well as a '73 3 and 4 way union with switches. I think I understand the shuttle in the 4 way union, but is it worth it to upgrade? Everyone talks about the shuttle like it was the Devil himself, but the added security of a dual system is appealing. Thoughts?
Thanks, Rut

Bueller, Bueller...
 
If its something you worry about....and, I think, we all do....you will keep a close eye on the fluid level and make sure the system is up to snuff.

I'd just stick with stock.

Stock X 2... As soon as you move to far out of the norm you get into the racing club stuff... and mostly racing means racing... Money generally flows a bit more freely over there in my mind too
