hi
Okay, these are going into the Demon:

Wilwood tandem plastic resevoir master cylinder (2 outlets, one front circuit, one rear circuit)

Wilwood 10lb residual valve (discs in the edit: front, drums in the back)

Wilwood adjustable proportioning valve

My question lies with the residual valve. The instructions say to "install after the tee fitting," but is that if you have a single outlet master cylinder, or do I still need to install it behind the distribution block in the middle of the lines?

This site (http://www.foundationpc.com/stories/brakes.html) says that the "junction box" (tee fitting?) doesn't connect the lines. Does the residual valve have to go behind it, or can it just be run like this:



(purple ends toward brakes)

Sorry misread your post that is correct.



Boy I need to get some lunch... I thought the residual was in front of the 't' which is correct but looking at it now, I think the residual should be after the prop valve but before the 'T' in the rear

Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

they can go before the block,no problem.
logically there is no reason why not,other than the single res. master you mentioned

I agree before the block will be fine. The factory setup has them in the Master Cyl which would be basically the same. Ron
