Baer sells a master cylinder with the ability to mount a prop valve to the bottom of it. So in their mind it doesn't seem you can get to close to the master, they seem to know what they are doing.

Never used one, never had to. Use the correct MC with the correct bore size and the bias built in, and plumbed correctly according to your combination (tire sizes, caliper sizes) and it just always works. If you use any old auto parts store master and don't know the bias, it's trial and error.

If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

That would make for a very nice clean set up. I too just converted to wilwood discs on front and rear after 30 yrs with stock fronts and wilwood rears.
I will have to see if I need to change out my old master cylinder. If so this may be an option.
Ok

I mounted the proportioning valve in the rear circuit. I put some rivnuts into the subframe connector and mounted the valve so that the adjustment knob just pokes through the floor between my knees when I'm driving. And I found a rubber grommet with an ID the size of the top of the prop valve housing. I slid that into the floor sheet metal and then slid the prop valve into the ID and then bolted it to the subframe connector. I'm not sure if it is really watertight since the car never sees the rain.

My street car is set up like DVW is, easy to reach BTW, don't forget to remove the residual valve from the M.C.

Jay, I'm mounting mine between the front hoop bar and the kick panel. I've moved all my lines from the engine compartment to under the dash area. Let me know if you want a picture.

Proportioner goes in the front system. Large rear drag tires will over come skinny fronts. When I first used Will Woods in 93 we wiped a pair of rotors in one season. It was the pad material. That 2nd pair of rotors were good until 2016. Two different cars, same set of rotors transfered to a faster car. Doug DVW, Why does the valve have a front and rear in port and 2 - front and 1-rear out port?

Line lock has 1 in, 2 out with 1 of them plugged as the front line T is further down. Doug
