Somewhere out there is a 337 or maybe even an STC to use the stock Cleveland brakes from a 150 or 152. Should be plenty of those in junkyards. See if someone at the type club has the info.

I was able to hold Coupe only up to 1500 to do the mag check in the past. However with properly inflated tires, that is no longer the case. I can hardly hold it at 1000 rpm. Having suffered through the economic drain (and emotional flogging) of my annual inspection and yet continuing radio problems, I don't like to think about a reasonably expensive (and maybe necessary) conversion to Cleveland brakes. I know this is an often repeated topic here, but does anyone have any inexpensive solutions to the Goodyear brake problem? Thanks. Frank Nelson N51DV - 415C TOA
