Master Cylinder Click
Since I put the BBK on, I have the stock master cylinder obviously and am running stainless lines from the hard lines in the fender lining straight into the caliper, the junctions were eliminated as they serve no purpose after the hard lines. For about a week everything is okay but when I apply the brakes now there is a clicking noise upon pressure on the pedal and lifting off- at lower speeds the sound seems to be coming from the master cylinder. I am sure it happens at higher speeds but can't hear it. The order from the master and what it contains is DOT4 super blue, master cylinder/ hard line/ stainless/ caliper...any help?
This happens when I am not moving either, so it's the master cylinder that much has been established. I had a technician look and he says it's the flex from the lines coming up into the cylinder due to the lack of flex in the lines. Any input or experiences would be great to hear of. Thank you
Sorry for repost but it's kind of important to know if other have experienced this...

I doubt this has anything to do with flex in the lines. Have you ruled out the possibility of air in the lines? It's also not uncommon for the brake booster to go bad and make weird noises - try replicating the sound with the engine off - if the noise goes away after the vacuum is used up, it might be the booster.

We fixed it the top bolt on the caliper was loose and the U bolt holding the line where the stainless and hardline meet was absent so those combined made it stop...so it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. Silly errors, easy solutions.
