So I have researched the topic for months now. With not much experience with braking systems... I am now more confused than ever. I'm going to start off by posting my question before I tell my story and explain how I ended up where I am.
Qt. How can you tell if a manual disc/drum master cylinder has residual valves built in? I plan on using a '76 Ford Granada master for a manual disc/drum car with .937 bore
I'm converting a Manual drum drum single chamber master cylinder car (1940 mopar) to a front disc (using 1990 chevy celebrity calipers) And rear drum (1973 b body mopar rear) and dual chamber non power master cylinder.
Before I installed disc on the front I had installed a dual drum drum mc from a late 60's mustang and it worked great.
I researched and found out that these year mustangs front disc or drum and non power used the same MC but required the use of a prop valve.
Instead of looking for the prop valve im experiment with a different disc/drum manual MC. ( the '76 Granada mentioned above) in hopes of possibly eliminating the need for prop valve?
2nd question; I'f I used 2lb and 10lb residual valves with this mc do I still need to use a prop valve?
Should I use both prop valves and residual valves ?
