On my 69 Camaro in the brake line going to my rear disc brakes I have an adjustable proportioning valve (the screw type) from classic tube. On the topic of adjustment, is screwing the knob all the way in (that being clockwise) allowing the most pressure to the rear brakes? As opposed to all the way out or counterclockwise for minimum rear brake pressure. Its been a while since Ive messed with it and need to re-educate myself......Thanks

Rotating the adjuster knob clockwise until it is all the way in will provide full pressure delivery to the calipers. Rotating the knob counterclockwise will incrementally reduce line pressure up to 57% when the valve is fully out.
