66Dvert
Working on my custom car parts again!
Ok I've been looking around the brake treads and searched for a picture of the residual valve (not restrictor oops sorry) that's supposed to go/be in the master cylinder when you have disc/drum brakes. located a couple of threads about it but no pic's, I'll be ordering a new(not remanufactured) so that I can verify that I get the right master cylinder for my conversion on my darts. 1st car is 9" drums and the second is 10" drums. both going to disc/drum combo
I just did a friends conversion using the scarebird adapters and he already had a disc brake style master and proportioning valve from a donor car so it wasn't an issue on his car ,it does stop 100% better than his old drums and single pot master (straight too!). it really motivated me to do the darts after I got into the v8 dart and hit the brakes compared to his car.
BUT I have nada,nuttin, zip for mine at the moment and want to make sure that I get the correct parts.
1: Do I need the residual valve in the master cylinder if I use a standard /disc/drum poportioning valve from a 85 dippy?
2: Will I need it if I go to an adjustable proportioning valve?
I know it's supposed to put in a little pressure on the rear wheel cylinders to keep them under slight pressure. I'm going new lines,wheel cylinders ,rubber lines, ect. due to the fact I can get it in stages and keep working on getting the car back on it's wheels
So who's got a picture of this elusive residual valve in the master cylinder and do I need it if I'm using new style rear wheel cylinders?
oops both are 66 darts so can I just order ummm 74/74 disc/drum lines and adjust as I go for final fit?
