I agree,su8overdrive, I'm tired of this as well. But we've really missed the question in the OP which had nothing to do with DOT5 in non-power brake systems like your 1940, 41 and 42 cars. The question was focused on the BTV and the fact that a major rebuilder of them would not honor his warranty if DOT5 was used. Hence the question, is there some bona fide reason why DOT5 shouldn't be used in a BTV? What did Ed Strain know or believe that led him to this warranty exclusion and is there any validity to it as it seems White Post is continuing the same position.
