Hi All -
does anyone have a pictured of the Rich Johnson -6 mount showing the rear brake proportioning valve installed? I just realized that all the pics I have of the installed mount dont show the valve installed.
Is it even an issue? Does it need to be removed to install the mount?
Thanks!!!

It depends on the year car. Mid 74 carried the new location for the "emergency pressure regulator" valve.
From mid-74 on they need to be moved.
I had to move mine:
I need to do a little line work now. I mounted it in the wrong spot. I should have put it on the rib.

Thanks a million - I got a bit nervous for a second....
Edit -
It appears look at Mr Shea's car that even though I can retain the facotry valve, I will have to pull the lower line off to thread it through the mount - is this correct?
My brakes are really great. I will do what I have to do, but would prefer not to open the system if possible.

Yup. Goes through that hole.
That's the later style line so I left in on there when I painted. I'll need to get the longer early style line now.
