Brake fluid is such a subjective thing. Some provide 'squish' and some are prone to provide a more solid feel. The recent debacle of silicone fluid did not work, I think
Now, we have the synthetics. Still, old DOT3 is great when rotated-out in an old car.
Modern stuff need what they need, of course!

According to the paperwork, 125 hp from a tr3 block oversized to run tr4 pistons. Originally Posted by sharptonn

The standard brakes should be fine when properly sorted.
They are what they are. Going 50 in that will be as fun as 100!
But then I am not a proponent of trying to modernize them much.
The quirks are part of the cars.
I DO like the downdraft Weber 2V kit and putting the side-drafts on the shelf.
I think Tom will not like that idea!
2000-2100 cc displacement now, so no, not fast..
But considering she had 58 hp stock, and only weighs around 2000 lbs I’m good at 125...
Did I mention they make a supercharger for the tr3 that equates to a 40% additional bump at WOT.?
Not that I’m getting one or anything,,,
DOT4 synthetic provides the same water protection as dot 5, I’m sold.
Being stored as much as this will be, want the best chance to reduce rust in the braking system."Depression is just anger,, without the enthusiasm."

Started a thread for the MG resto so as not to derail this one with all my Monty Python references, hehe.
