'Stainless Steel Brake'... are they an aftermarket manufacturer, or do they just overhaul/rebuild Bendix control valves? I just put a seal kit in my Papa's '63 1/2 Galaxie, identical valve to mid-sixties Mustangs (among many others I'm sure). $16 for the kit, took about an hour, good as new  ------------------ 1965 GT coupe, 333ci aluminum headed/solid cammed stroker, four speed, 3.70:1 9" All Blue Oval, no blue bottle http://mustangsandmore.50megs.com/V8Thumper.html

Did that a while ago and I don't quite remember how many quater turns it took me but not too many. It shouldn't be that hard. You need to bleed the air out of the system by turning the wheel from side to side several times, this may be your problemI'll check tonight in the ford book and will tell you. I do remember posts about really bad rebuilt unit from various companies though, it may be the case here
