Hello all--I just posted a very poor Polaroid scan onto the "Technical" section of this site's photo gallery, per the recent discussion of 544 brake switches, etc. (can someone advise on inserting images into posts...?).

That blurry mass right below the steering column is a driver-fabricated bracket carrying a wilwood dual-master/balance bar swing pedal, and two master cylinders, one each for front and rear brakes. Except for the bracket, all parts are stock race items, requiring no modifications. Just visible about an inch above the very blurry word "Wilwood" on the pedal shaft is the mechanical brake switch supplied by Ron Kwas, works great on this setup and is easily accessible for adjustment or service.

I fully intend to make more and much better photos of this setup available for those who are interested--most are still in my camera--as well as a writeup of the unit's performance as I fine-tune the whole system. Not yet installed is the remote adjuster, to allow "in cockpit" bias adjustment between from and rear brakes. You'd never know it from this image, but the bracket M/C's and plumbing do not interfere at all with the (tall) driver's knees. Still working out the necessary changes to hot-air hose routing, maybe defrost only. Eventually a nice panel in dark red will wrap the whole business and cut down on the Frankenstein effect.

The brakes are great, 122 discs in front--and just after installation the fresh M/C driving the worn rear brakes promptly popped a wheel cylinder. It was nice not to worry about still being able to stop. In all not worth doing just to mount a mechanical brake switch but that was a fringe benefit for me.

All best, Nathan
