2wo pages back i pondered:

"IF everything HYDRAuLIC between chevy and Packard are EQAUL then how does the chevy get away with a 3:1 pedal ratio WHILE Packard has a 1:1 pedal ratio???"

The only possible 'guess' i can come up with is that the POWER unit (not the master cylinder) of the High mounted chevy BTV some how multiplies the LENGTH of the stroke toward the master cylinder.

Is this what everyone else understands that i don't???? I'll go back and study the diagrams that HH56 posted earlier and the diagrams in my 56 Motors Manual if that's what is really happening.
