Weird prob after cam swap So today i was just moving the car around the garage and the brake pedal went hard and i was leaking a little brake fluid leaking on the floor. The leak was coming from somewhere on the passenger side near the ac pump.. i couldnt see any lines in that area. I guess im having vacuum issues since its such a big cam? what do you guys think?
if its from the passenger side, most likey the pass brake hose is damaged or the caliper seal is gone bad! but if the brakes got hard then check the power booster line!

ya.. it did both.. couldnt find a leak anywhere. the fluid is really out of place but it has to be coming from somewhere. Ill get a better look 2mrw. How much vacuum do our cars need for the brakes to work properly?

cars dont need much vacuum at all to make a vacuum booster work, the lower the vaccuum the less power the power brakes will assist. There is a brake line running under your engine through the subframe if you didnt already know that, just makin sure
