The brake pedal does return to the normal position.
The calipers are used from LA dismantlers. We bleed the brakes twice. Yesterday I disassembly one front caliper(to my sorry) found nothing wrong, just ended with 4 piston that are nearly impossible to place back and a totally scracthed caliper. Thanks Onix

I wonder if this had to be to the fact that these brakes were desingned for cars equipped with brake boosters. Do the brake boosters cause retraction of the pistons?

I'm sorry to hear you guys are having troubles, but I'm glad you're discussing it here so we can all learn something hopefully.

i have 951 m/c and calipers all around. i have not experienced this. i have the new pads touching a little, but all seem to retract fine. just have to break-in the first mm.
i have had an issue with the brake pedal pushrod not being long enough since my m/c piston seems to sit a little more forward than the stock unit.

When I got the 951 calipers/rotors everything was fine. The problem is with the Big Reds calipers/rotors.

Could it be the size of the M/C ?
I'm running a 25.4mm front and 22.2mm rear with a balance bar for my setup, plenty of volume for the pistons .... remember, those Big Reds (f+r) have much larger pistons than the 951 setup. Do you have to pump the pedal a few times to stop the car ? or do you have a firm pedal with just one push ? Sandeep

Oh, there is no problem to stop the car.With just one stroke it stop very well, better than the 951 set up.The master is from 951, but I do not have any balancing hardware.The calipers just mantain some considerable pressure/drag on the rotors.
Thanks, Onix
