Nick brakes! Wish I could afford 951 stuff.

What is the aluminum box opposite the master cylinder?
- proportioning valve?
- line lock?

What model of line lock is that?
and what master cyl ?
My 61 looks similar but mine has all early 944 brakes with 944 master cyl.

Excuse me if this is a dumb question, but are your lines run the right way out of your master cyl? I thought the front line goes out the first hole and rear is the second hole (from the pedal)? I know it's not the same in all M/C's. Thanks JR

Didnt mean it like "that" It was a good question... got me thinking a little bit. Almost scared me there for a few minutes.....

PS. I thank everyone on the forum for sharing all thier info on this swap. It saved me alot of time with trial and error.

Well, heres what i came up with. Fitting these on drop spindles is a real PITA. But there on there. I was hard cutting into the nice pretty calipers. Thank you to all who have shared info.on doing this conversion. It helped greatly.

absolutely gorgeous!!! would they fit on an oval with narrowed beam, cb dropped disk spindles? ive been offered reds from a boxster, with disks for 400 is this good money? is there much work involved?

would they fit inside 15x6 and 15x8 fuches?

They "fit" yes. Backs are easy. Front require machining and creative thinking. "not the easy part." Not sure about the boxter brakes. Never worked with them before.
