Subject: Re: Disc Brakes for a DB3L
Ken hi

I was considering this modification for my 3.0 dhc with front disc's, but it is is far from simple. and potentially pretty expensive

If you want d a degree of extra safety, then why not fit a dual circuit system. You will have a little more space for fitment of the servo's, if you have an engine with original exhaust layout, and not a Ford or Jaguar replacement.

The owner of a 3.0 litre 4 door, Robin Allum has done this, and there is a good article on the other Lagonda web-site, and he feels the car now stops much more reliably and quickly.
