New build LS2 front disc brake problems
Hi all, I just purchased a new build 1969 LS2 with front disc brakes and rear drum. So car has zero miles, I took it out for its first drive and everything was good for about 3-5 miles then front brakes are smoking, smelling, creaking and are super hot. Pedal gets hard and braking becomes difficult. Another day I adjust the proportionating valve and everything seems good, hit the 3-5 mile mark and same issues. Today I shortened the brake pedal rod and pedal was nice and soft. Went for a ride same issues and car had major issues trying to move from a stop in 1st gear. Felt like the brakes were being pressed and a trailer was attached. Car also felt like it was pulling a trailer and loosing power after 4th gear. When car is jacked up front tires are difficult to get spinning by hand. Takes a lot of force. Any advice, tips and tricks greatly appreciated. Thanks.
