Got a question on brake system setup/upgrades: I'm trying to hash out the final parts of my disc upgrade on a 94 shadow (originally a disc/drum car). I currently have planned:
later Van 60mm calipers (for 11" brakes)
11" R/T Rotors
Front Pads: ceramic or other GOOD pads
Rear Pads: probably average semi-metallics or ceramics
Rear solid disc setup (drum ebrake) (10" or 11" - not sure, haven't measured...)
However, my stumbling block at this point is the Prop valve. I have been unable to locate a factory disc/disc valve for a P-Body and am considering going with an adjustable prop valve. The big concerns i have are the only valves I can find that may work only have one out for the rear for a F/R setup. This is quite different from the diagonal RF/LR and LF/RR diagonal split from the factory.
What would switching ot a front/rear adjustable valve have over a factory prop valve, if any?
Also, I'm not sure which M/C I'd need, whether a 24mm, 1" or 1-1/8" due to the caliper sizing?
