Personally I would just use a adjustable proportioning valve. Most find that even having a adjustable one, it doesn't need adjusting. The dual master cylinder will normally apply front to back all on it's own. JMO

Someone already posted my pic but there's not much to installing an adjustable proportioning valve. On a disk/drum setup you just splice it in the rear brake line. Did mine right next to the master cylinder where it's very easy to get to and adjust.

I have the adjustable valve ( wilwood) on my e-body next to the driver seat . Makes it easy to adjust and with the carpet pulled over no one sees it.

did you use a specific kit?

The valve and mounting bracket was bought from one of the well known reproduction brake line companies. It was 18 years ago and I just don't remember who. All I recall is that they were at Carlisle and the valves were on their table.
I made all of the brake lines on the car as no one back then was selling any prebent lines for a 64 wagon that has a disc brake conversion.
