[FC] Questions

[Ken Hand]

I know it seems the popular thing to do but the FC does not need disc brakes. Good working drum brakes are more than adequate for the FC. 


As far as the dual master goes if you look around there is a Cadillac master cyl that has the outlets on the opposite side so the lines don't go right into the frame rail. I think it also has a bolt top and with care can be serviced through the floor opening. The bail wire top is a real pain to open and latch through the opening.

For those that have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know.

Hi and Happy Easter to All,I have a couple, six questions.For anyone who has changed to a dual master cylinder:Do you need to modify the opening in the floor to service it? If so, what did you do?Sticking with brakes:Anyone put Disc brakes in the front? Is so, what parts did you use? Did you have to change wheels?For those who are OEM:The plastic defroster vents in the dash:What color should they be?I have several some are painted and some are a grayish color with no paint.Standard vs Deluxe trim?Last Question:I am still looking for the seal for the plastic air door behind the grill (I believe it is 64/64) that lets air into the cab.Thank you in advance.Best Regards,Eric_______________________________________________Corvanatics mailing listCorvanatics at corvair.orghttp://www.vv.corvair.org/mailman/listinfo/corvanaticsThis list sponsored by the Corvair Society of America, http://www.corvair.org/
