If running bigger wheeels and tires in the rear a new proportion valve "usually" isn't needed. I'm using a disc/drum master cylinder from an '89...
All good to know. :thumbs2:
:Welcome: from south central PA.
LOL
Thanks. Yeah, the original owner of the car only had it for 2 1/2 years before I bought it but he was really "creative" with some of the wiring....
I'm adding some new gauges and trying to cleanup the mess of wires behind the gauge cluster in my '70. At the circuit board connector there's a...
That's my guess, too. Disc brake pads don't have to move as far as drum shoes so the larger cylinder moves the shoes with less pedal travel.

Yep. Found out about that many years ago when I was putting together a 347 using a D4 block. Pistons were .020" down in the holes. Ford Power...

My Maverick originally had a 200 and ran so cold in the winter that I would block half the radiator with a piece of tempered wall board to help...
I found when I replaced the wiper and light switches in my '70 with a set from a '76 the shaft of the '76 wiper switch was longer than the one...
I'm the second owner of my car, it was only 31 months old when I bought it. The original owner was a college kid at a local school. He sold it...
Not very consistent, were they? LOL I wonder if it varied by year or factory? Mine's a '70 built in St. Thomas.
Striker, tires, then VIN.[ATTACH]
If all you're concerned with is adding adjustable shocks you could just relocate where the tops of the shocks mount. Get rid of the mounts that...
Message Nick Dominic, he has about 20 of 'em. Buys every one one he comes across at Carlisle. LOL
It depends. The prop valve keeps the rear wheels from locking up before the fronts. With stock or near stock rear wheels/tires lockup could be a...
