87 XJS ABS pump/accumulator
Hi everyone. Need advise please. I'm building an '87 XJS 5.3L V12 race car. Original wiring a mess and replaced with custom wiring. As a result the ABS pump/accumulator system dont work no more, I have no brakes. Can I still somehow use the pump to give me brakes? I dont need ABS, just the pump to work. Or what else can I do?

For a racecar I'd just ditch the ABS. As the wiring is already deqd, simply remove the parts and get an earlier model pedal box without ABS or better said just get the master cylinder and brake booster.
The ABS is a good system, but would fail in a race. It isn't made for that kind of driving
