Got some parts this week for my Merc. Just wanted to see if what I have will work together. M/C - 75-78 Ford MC 15/16" bore and Stock Merc underfloor pedal. MC is mounted to fatman fab MC relocation bracket. Front system: 2LB residiual Press valve (close as possible to the MC) Hold -off/metering valve mid 80's chevy celebrity calipers Rear system: 10LB residiual pressure valve (close as possible to MC) Proportioning valve (with ports for front half blocked off, didn't realize I could get one with a single in single out till later) 9" rear end with quick performance drum brakes All line will be 3/8" How does this sound for a system? I'm open to all suggestions and/or improvements.
I have basically the same brake system in my '31. Bigger than 3/16" isn't needed for stock brakes. Make sure to check the lever ratio for manual brakes.
