    Installing a dual master cylinder on my 1964 1/2. How should I hook up the lines?

    I hada to install a proportioning valve that was designed for front disc rear drum. I got it from Rod and Custom Motorsport in SC. When I did it I found info by Google. I seem to remeber that NPD or Mustangs Unlimited offerd advice too.
