Do that
Really is starting to come together
Thanks that's very helpful Sven, haha I've been trying to add up the total amount of things that can potentially leak in the cooling, hydraulic, and fuel systems omg, basically everything but yeah it's really nice not to be scraping the underside - been there done that!The dot 5 is silicon based, but dot 5.1 is not. I use dot 5.1 brake fluid in the Lotus and EVO and it's fully compatible with dot 4 and dot 3. And dot 4 in the other cars. The latter is just a bit cheaper and all that's really needed in a fast road car. Dot 5.1 comes into its own on a race track, it's just that bit more heat tolerant.
Dot 5.1 sounds right for your build, though dot 4 could do just fine too. Just depends on intended use.
