    Proportioning Valve - can I make into a distribution block ?

    Just to update everyone, I removed the proportioning valve part of the "combo" disc/drum valve ( spring, plunger, seal ). Rear disc brakes now work alot better & I can adjust the rear balance now with the adjustable inline proportioning valve. Thanks for the help !

    Proportioning Valve - can I make into a distribution block ?

    My setup looks just like the stock Mopar combo distrib/proportioning valve ( which I think it might be instead of a distribution block only ) .... and then an output to rear brakes uses just a universal adjustable valve to balance rears.... The goal should be a similar function as the...

    Proportioning Valve - can I make into a distribution block ?

    ....just like in photo above... master cylinder front/rear outlets to valve inputs, front output to front brakes directly, rear output to rear brake line after going thru adjustable valve then to axle distrib. block.... just like factory setup, except using rear disc.

    Proportioning Valve - can I make into a distribution block ?

    ok.... that's true.... but just wanted to try an easy fix by just unscrewing plug, removing the spring & valve on the rear proportioning side (see photo) and then re-installing plug, without replumbing it all.

    Proportioning Valve - can I make into a distribution block ?

    I did a 4-wheel Right Stuff disc/disc conversion on my '69 Charger last fall, but the rear brakes have never seemed to brake correctly. I'm using the front/rear adjustable valve, but it has never seemed to do very much. I think the proportioning valve from Right Stuff for disc/disc...

    Holley Sniper first time bad results.

    I tried the FiTech 600CFM system, and it did not work with my '69 Charger big-block 440 with headers... just too much heat in engine compartment for the built-in throttle body ECU to function correctly. It worked great with a cool engine, but suffered random results when engine got up to temp...

    Removing failed 727 from 440 engine mounted in car

    Well, got the old 727 out... not sure what the failure was. Appears that it might have been the front pump & seal, since it dumped alot of fluid on the ground before I shut it off. Used a Jegs 79010 transmission jack for my lift, worked fairly well... but I needed to use my engine hoist to...

    Removing failed 727 from 440 engine mounted in car

    Ok, thanks.. so how do you do that ? as there is not much room ..... Does it have to be turned 90 degrees, with tail shaft pointing down, then rotated out ? can I still use a floor trans jack, or should I get one I can use with a car lift ?

    Window rear run channel - rivets ?

    Thanks for the help/photos.... unfortunately I just realized I ordered the wrong channel felts (AS2001) for a Charger. ( Doh ! ) These are for a 4Dr. sedan... Just ordered the correct ones from DMT that include rivets (AS990033) for 2Dr. HT -- that are alot wider. Seems final...

    '69 Charger fender install - J-bolts for hood hinge ?

    I'm installing my fenders on my '69 Charger after painting, but don't recall the bolt install & J-clips for the hood hinge. To test, I put a new after-market J-clip in the fender where the upper-bolt on the hood hinge installs, but it seems like it adds too much thickness -- causing the fender...

    Rear window SS trim install - '69 Charger -- clip locations ?

    Ok, I adjusted to add tape marks on trim side to use your measurements in your drawing The bottom appears very close, so no issue.... Although for the side, it seems that the lower clip is right at the location where the corner meets the top trim ? is that correct from what you recall ?
