Vehicle: 1972 C20 3/4 Ton 2wd Suburban (daily driver street car)
Original Brake System: Power front disc (single piston), rear drum with dual master cylinder
New Brake System: Factory booster with Baer 1 1/8 "Remaster" master cylinder
Front Wilwood dual piston calipers (6.28 piston area/ 3.9 pad volume)
Rear Wilwood dual piston calipers (2.46 piston area/ 3.9 pad volume)
5.6:1 factory pedal ratio
All new 3/16 steel brake lines with -3 fittings throughout
My question is, with the new system, do I need to run the adjustable prop. valve available for the Baer master cylinder or does the difference in position area front to rear account for proper front to rear brake bias?
I realize that may potentially be a dumb question, but I figured Id ask before I go through the trouble of plumbing the prop. valve....the system is complete with the exception of the short lines coming off the master cylinder that would potentially include the prop valve.
Thanks,
Greg
