The car has a metal master cylinder with two lines going to the proportioning valve and three brake lines coming from the valve. It appears that there is a line for each front brake and one line for the rear brakes.

When I install my single inlet and single outlet line lock (Biondo), can I just join both lines going to the front brakes into to a single line to the Biondo and then split the single line into two lines going out to each brake?
or
Plug one front brake-line outlet on the proportioning valve and run a line from the other to the line lock; then split the lines (as mentioned above) to reconnect to the two front brake lines.

I did it on an '89.

The '82 is a different setup.

That's for an '88 which is the same as an '89.

Thanks guys, for trying. I found a solution. I am just going to connect the thing between my master cylinder and the proportioning valve. Simple.
