Fossewell brakes turned up

What flavour?

 

Niiiiiiice

 

Check for escorts in rear mirror before braking.
Post up the road test once fitted.

 

Fosseway, not Fossewell http://www.fossewayperformance.co.uk/vw-late-bay-brake-upgrade/

It’s difficult to tell from the pics but they probably have a similar piston area as standard so the same clamping pressure. They’re fitted with EBC Ultimax pads with 30% larger area and should work well. But for £630 plus delivery they’re not exactly a cheap upgrade.

@Mark Bodlmeade What engine do you have?

 

And pecs !

 

@Mark Bodlmeade have you seen this thread? https://thelatebay.com/index.php?threads/oh-front-brake-upgrade.73072/

 

I'm pretty certain the ratchet on a pedal thing was the clutch, the rear drum adjustors were inside the drum itself - at least that was the set up on a Cortina. I can't see how the ratchet could be on the actual brake pedal as that operates the master cylinder which is hydraulic

 

recently he asked about a biigger engine 1776 or 2110cc, but hasn't posted anymore on his original post or the other post i suggested for him.

With those brakes he should go for at least 2110cc.

Im 2110cc, with standard brakes - non servo!

 

Hmm maybe so. This was about 1983, but it was definitely one of the pedals.

I just looked at Haynes. All the self adjusting mechanism on the Bays that have them seems to be inside the drum.

 

I remember now. He has a 1600 and wants a ‘hotter’ engine. It’s shame he doesn’t bother to reply.

 

Probably busy fitting them regardless of the negbombing - you don't want to do like that
