eh ... disregard this... more conjecture and opinion.

if it's an issue, follow the law.

I've researched this every few years when it comes up.

i've been unable to find many cases of my wilwoods failed and i nearly died or such disasters. found one account of a piston seal failing that seems to have been because the owner would spray brake cleaner on the pistons and shove them back in the bores frequently.

people complain that the dynalites are too small for corvettes on the track, and complaints of flex that range from blaming the caliper, to the mounting plate to the firewall flexing.

when i say wilwood dynalite i mean wilwood dynalite II, there may have been issues in the older ones. ALSO are we talking the billet or forged? the forged ones are stronger, if you're insane there is a cast dynalite...


personally, i feel safer with the wilwoods than the OEM brakes this car had. there are other models, i beleve that there is a 'dynapro' model thats has dust seals, id use those if i went around much dirt.
