I still have the stock proportioning valve in the car.
I think the brakes favor the fronts a little too much. I smoke the fronts, never the rears. I'd like to put on some junk tires and see if I can get to the point where when I apply max brake pressure, the rears lock just after the fronts.

The only way to adjust the stock valve is to remove it and toss it in the trash.
Get a Tilton valve if you want to play with it. (I got one I'll sell ya) Paul |
