I had Fade issues on my 01 1k and at mid OH and Putnam on a SS brake lines, Galfter HH pads, and stock rotors. I bled the lines before Putnam, and almost ended up in the kitty litter after a short red flag when my front brake came almost all the way to the bar. So I had Pro Stock performance bleed the lines before Mid OH and after about 5 laps I had to use all finger since if I used two or one the lever was coming straight to rest on my fingers around the clipon.. Now mind you this is with the lever adjuster on the farthest setting. I didn't bleed lines again, change pads, master cylineder, but changed to Wave rotors and fade was cut to minimal during an entire 20 minute session.
