I purchased a 65 Belvedere from an elderly gentleman who had no details about the car other than it has a 70 440 ( verified ) , modified a/t, and 3:55 suregrip. Somebody at sometime put in a power disc front / drum rear conversion with a proportioning valve. I've done this myself before with a Jeg's kit and a SSBC proportioning valve for the rears, but don't know anything abut this set-up. What I do know is that the rear wheels / tires appear to lock up before the front...which is not the way it's supposed to be. I also wanted to install a Hurst Line-Loc but someone separated the front left & right so I would have to re-plumb that into a Y then into the Line-Loc anyways.
Any suggestions on what this set-up is ? ( Please see pic ) And how I may be able to readjust the bias between the front and rear brakes.? If there is an adjustment for the Prop valve, where is it hiding ?
