I need 2 good res's for Brake and Clutch. I think due to the S-10 calipers I need something with some piston mass. What do you guys recomend and where to find it?

I kind of hit on that topic awhile back. CNC makes any size bore you need. If your looking to get by cheap look on ebay. There are always a ton of race car take-offs on there. cnc, wilwood, howe, girling...

What size bore are yopu running now :?:

Stock replicas I believe. A full pump isn't enough to fill the pistons so I need 1"+ I believe.

A residual valve will probably cure the problem.

He said 'Residual valve not proportion valve .
a Residual valve will hold a small amount of pressure on the system so you don't have to pump
and also if you get too big of a bore you will have to stand on the pedal with booth feet to make enough pressure to stop
smaller the bore ...more pressure to the calliper

Just curious,where are your resevoirs leaking from?
How are they attached to the master cylinders?
