Hello

i am working on my 1975 914 1.8 , i rebuilt the master cyl , rebuilt right rear caliper , and replaced left rear caliper , replace the grommets on master cyl for resov. lines , i have set the rear brake venting to .008 and bleed the system multiple time , i have no air coming thru system at all , i have brakes now but they just dont seem to be correct , if i stand on the brakes hard they do not lock up while driving, are the brakes on these just that way or dose anyone have any other suggestions on what could be a problem , ... i have no leaks anywhere either and the park brake seems to hold the car under a light load

thanks craig

I'm wondering that as well. I can mash my brakes and they dont lock up either so I would like to hear what you did to resolve it (switched to M calipers?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). Let us in on the secret (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) .
