    Braking - pulls to LEFT...

    Car is a fully restored 72 T 'hot rod', never wrecked or rusted car, and all of the suspension and brake components are new (using late Carrera calipers front and rear). Stock 72 master cylinder. Noticeable pull to the left when the brakes are applied - at speed or even at a few or less miles an hour coasting to a stop...steering wheel will quickly turn left. Issue has been present since its day one drive to present with 800 miles. Same symptom too from its initial 'garage floor' alignment to a properly done alignment rack alignment by a very experienced early 911 tech, so I'm confident it is not an alignment issue. Brake pedal has always been high and firm...not a hint of air in the system, so I have not yet re-done a brake bleed. I'm suspecting a front caliper issue...not sure if the LEFT is over-achieving, or the RIGHT is under-achieving? Any good way to tell? Other thoughts most welcome. Thanks.
