Re: Porportioning Valve
[QUOTE=Eman;491404]I highly doubt you have any residual ck valves unless you installed them and or your MC is lower than the calipers. I spoke to brake manufacturers and they said they haven't used a residual ck valve in MC's for years. Modern wheel cyls have little strainers or valves on the ends of the springs which prevent the fluid from flowing too far back causing a low pedal on the first pump.
I'd try without any proportioning valve and see how it goes. usually you'll lock the frt. on a drag car with skinny tires before you'll lock the rear slicks. You might end up putting an adjustable proportioning valve in the frt. brake line. You might need the next size bore larger as disc brakes use more volume of fluid than drums, you'll just have to see.[/QUOTE)
Good point master cyl usually higher in cars. I was thinking of Chassis cars with low master cyl. Thanks for reminder and update on manufacturing.
