Is FFR kidding on this? I am helping Bill3422 w/ his build and we were looking for the reservoirs trying to be sure to allow room and found a single reservoir. I thought maybe they backordered one so Bill checked his inventory sheet. Sure enough there is only one listed. I looked in the manual and it has 5 pages w/ 10 pics showing the the Wilwood dual adjustable MC setup FFR supplies. They supply one kind of small reservoir and tee the hose to feed two MCs. I think it was around 1969 that the feds required a dual MC and dual reservoir on every car in the US. WTF?

there is only one rez in the kit - unfortunately.
I bought 2 motorcycle reservoirs and they worked quite nicely.

With the reservoir being remote this system functions similiar to a stock system. The stock reservoir has one tank that is divided into two down near the bottom in case one side of the sytem fails, in the system with the remote tank that extra volume lies in the lines that feed the masters. The fluid volume has to be enough to allow the system to continue to work if one side fails, and would only be a problem if both sides were to fail simultaneously, but in that case you would be incredibly unlucky and not have brakes anyway.

I have no opinion on the merits of the FFR setup, but I do have a few large and small Wilwood white plastic reservoir tanks sitting around if you want an extra one.

Jim, I mentioned this to another friend today and he said something similiar. We figured to put the tee as close to the reservoir as possible so we would have as much seperated volume as possible.
