Brake M/C three outlets

My MC has 3 outlets. I know for IVA you need a diagonal split so what do i do with the third outlet?





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

is it a sierra item? output 1 nearest the bulkhead goes to rears...output 2 middle goes to front left....output 3 furthest from bulkhead to front right

you will probaly have to have some kind of restrictor valve fitted in line with rears to prevent overbraking on rears....i did

Yep if its sierra, 2 to end ones (furthest from bulkhead) to front wheels, single outlet to rears.

I didnt need a rear restrictor in mine with drums at the back, though you will if using discs.

Im hoping to use the Jag one (if the exhaust doesnt melt the reservior)

Doesnt the IVA manual say that one pipe needs to act on two diagonal wheels?

From IVA manual:

quote:

The vehicle must be fitted with a split (dual) circuit brake system with each part of the system operating on at least two wheels (one on each side), capable of operating in the event of a failure of the service brake or its power assistance.

no you can have either diagonal or front and back, so long as its not two wheels on just one side as then the car would try and turn

That reads to me that, as long as you have the front and rear on seperate circuits that will be fine.

I think

Ah t'interweb you could virtually hear hundreds of car builders repiping their brake lines shortly after that post.
