David has done us all some valuable testing here -- what we need is some 
one with a  stock oem Corvair Dual MC setup to do the same and report 
their results.  Having has this happen personally, on a freeway off ramp 
with a stop sign, and a 1-ton IH and large trailer, it still had brakes, 
but not nearly enough (rear hose blew) -- God was looking out for me 
that day -- there should be some residual braking effect.

David -- with both a front and rear bleeder screw open, what stops the 
brake pedal at the end of the stroke, the cylinder or some artificial stop?

On the switches, they used to sell a little stop pin that one screwed 
into the switch to keep the valve centered while you worked on the 
brakes -- the idea was you install the pin first -- didn't work if it 
was already tripped -- seemes they finally introduced a self centering 
version, iirc.
