Fitted my wilwood six pots today and having trouble getting a solid pedal, brakes do work but just a lot of travel.

Pretty confident all the air is bled out the system and fitted new braided lines to the front and dot 5 fluid.

I was wondering if the master cylinder was up to the job as its a bit of a jump from 2 pots to 6 and just wondered if anyone else has had this problem when upgrading brakes ?

sounds like they still may have air in the system, did you bleed the rears also?? must do to sort properly, also daft one but you do have the bleed nipples to the top!!
if not they will never bleed up fully

Do the Wilwoods have TWO bleed nipples per caliper?
If so then bleeding via one will not get rid of all air- both points need bleeding.

Yup sounds like air is still in there ... as has been said check the bleed nipples are at the top of the calipers.

Bleed nipples at the top and started at the rear as i drained the old fluid so a total flush through, is there a correct order to bleed the front calipers ? inside outside nipple first ?

outside nipple first, then inner.......and start from N/S/F and then diagonally opposite to O/S/R, repeat for other O/S/F and then N/S/R....................
