Re: Ford Model A Tudor Modern Twist on a Classic

Hit a road block, but progress has been made every week. Trying to get to a point to be registered so I've been working on mirrors, wipers, lights, and all the electrical. Closing up the rear panels to cover the gas tank and battery.

My road block is the front brakes. A drive around the block will cause them to heat up and "stick" to the rotors. Both rotors seem to do the same thing and they are Wilwoods. I am feeding the front brakes from a single line with a T near the left front. I'm thinking something is happening upstream in the proportioning valve or master cylinder, but not sure how to start troubleshooting. Brakes feel firm and stop fine, but definitely couldn't drive this a mile without overheating the rotors.
