I haven't heard that one before.  I have always heard that you shouldn't mix 
them, but that's about it.  I'm running DOT 5 silicone fluid with factory front 
discs on a 69, and it stops fine (well, as fine as it did in 69).

Further to my post re brake hoses, talking to my local UK american
spares guy (who hasn't got front hoses!)

He gave me a ten minute lecture that I'm running the wrong brake fluid.

I have been using Dot 4 and now topping up with Dot 5.1 (not using Dot 5
silicone based)

He tells me that under no circumstances should I use anything but Dot
3?????

Is this true and will I run into problems re brake seal issues?

Regards
 
Edward Gregory

 Hi

Anybody have a source for front flexi brake hoses for a 1968 first gen
with the factory 4 pot callipers? And a picture? I bought a pair 6
months ago but they do not look correct (are different lengths)so I may
need to get a nother pair.
