how much pedal travel do you have?

been sorting mine out earlier, and with the cylinders screwed about halfway into the pivots it still needs a fair way to get the cylinders to max out.

or dont they go down that far with fluid in etc?

as when its all in place, the pedal hits the bulkhead before the cylinders are fully compressed, but it still goes down a long way.

its a wilwood top mount jobby

It will feel alot better all plumbed in and bleed etc.However,you may have a problem with the pedal ratio,but I'd only worry about that IF the brakes are rubbish once you've plumbed/bleed them.Regards,Micky
