Brake system stuff
Need advice on planning the brake system on a e-body stocker. I have strange discs front and back. Planning on using a 2 step with an adjustable pressure switch. Question are is a line loc and adjustable proportioning valve a must ? And does the pressure switch go on the front or rear circuit ?

Thanks Larry. Ok, no stock Prop valve, just a distribution block.

Same as Larry's with pressure switch between master cylinder and line lock.

Re: Brake system stuff
I use a Hurst Line Lock and my pressure switch screws right into an extra port on the LL.

Re: Brake system stuff
Eman, sounds simple enough. I think I'll do that. Not really decided on an adjustable prop. valve. If I have no valve, I should have 50/50 brake bias. If that doesn't work well enough, I can always add one to put more bias on the rear wheels.
