Can I use DOT 5 fluid? Is DOT 3 or 4 better performing? Totally new system so will not be accidentally mixing fluids. Thanks

I flushed the system in my '67 Imperial and am now running dot 5 with no complaints. It won't mess up your pant and is said to also not take on moisture over time. I wish I would have converted my Challenger over after the new paint job in th engine room because the paint under the master would still look new...:mad:

I've used DOT 5 in all my old cars with excellent results. Like Matt said, won't take on moisture so it is great for cars that sit a lot...
