Dear Thomas,

	My budget upgrade that worked well is as follows:  new softer brake pads to improve cold brake performance and improve pad bite, braided steel brake lines, complete flush of the old brake fluid and a Pantera Performance Center after market replacement master cylinder.  It is a modest amount of bolt on work and notably improved the brake performance.  It is not sufficient to take to the track.  It is satisfactory for street driving and the like.  I didn't remove the proportioning valve, but it would be a good idea.

			Sincerely, Chuck Engles

Subject:	Budget upgrade for breaks

What is the best choice to upgrade break system (74 L)on a budget? I
have already switched to braided lines to remove flex. Have new
(stock)pads...all remaining systems rebuilt (stock) and working
properly. Would like more stopping power. Please assist. Thanks Tom
