Hard brakes
just finished a swap to a 350 with a decent cam in it. my problem with my brakes is when stopped at a light or backing out of the driveway (at very low speed/no throttle) my brakes act as if they are not power brakes. is this due to low vacuum at idle speed? can I adjust/correct this or just live with it? stock brakes, stock master cylinder ect. thanks

And get one soon before you get into stop and go traffic and hit the back of someone because of a super hard pedal.
