: Need details on M/C and Prop valve lines on 69 69rad Apr 18th, 04, 06:42 PM I'm looking for a pic of the brake lines going from the M/C to the proportioning valve and then to the distribution block on a 69. What size wrench do the fittings the on the M/C and the distribution valve lines take? The fittings on my prop. valve take a 7/16" Thanks for the info davidpozzi Apr 19th, 04, 01:56 PM The round vavle near the master cyl is a "metering" valve or sometimes called a "hold back" valve. it restricts fluid pressure from the front brakes until the rear wheel cyls overcome the return springs. that way, the brakes come on front and rear at the same time. The prop valve is on the frame rail aprox under the drivers seat. Sorry, don't have any photos of 69 stuff. David 69rad Apr 19th, 04, 03:43 PM I apologize. I was using the terminology from my newly acquired reference material, Jerry MacNeish's The Definitive 1969 Camaro Z/28-SS396 Fact Book and the catalog of my brake line supplier, D&R Classic Automotive. Anyhow I'm looking for a picture of the master cyl. and the 2 nearby mounted valves with the lines connected on a 69 front disc camaro. How's that? JohnZ Apr 19th, 04, 03:45 PM How's this?
