Thank you and thanks for watching. Hope you can now get your Nova done….

Found The adapters on speedway motors

That’s a good move… this one works well for me and tuned out good.

Thanks a ton.....any info is a help at some point.

@@Nova.1971 for sure mate. It's the small bits of detail that always get missed that get passed down from some doing it a million times to some doing it for the first fime

Thanks for watching!!!

Glad it helped

@@Nova.1971 I believe I’ve seen your car around MJ

Yes you have, what do you drive as I may seen it or even chatted with you.@@tylerseabook9423

Sounds like a cool project I will have to sub to your channel....Thanks for watching....

@@Nova.1971 the brakes and suspension were actually addressed years before i started my channel, but everything is holding up great.

Did you keep the distribution block on the frame rail when you installed the new proportioning valve? Or did you get rid of it? I have same car and recently did an upgrade but think im missing this step as my brakes now are worse than the drums

@@jeffdillard3201 The new set up comes with the new proportional block that mounts to the master cylinder. You need to remove the old block and use the new one as it splits the flow correctly to the rear drums and front discs. Have you got your brake warning light hooked up also? How did you bleed the system? Mine work fine.

@@jeffdillard3201 oh no, you need to change the block / valve. The front drum/rear drum proportioning valve is calibrated for quicker pressure to override drum spring tension, while the front disc/rear drum valve actually slows the front disc to prevent lock up. I wasnt a fan of having the valve right under my master cylinder, so i modified the prebent kit to put the new front disc/rear drum valve on the frame, the same as the old front drum/rear drum valve location. Even if you were to go to a frt disc/ rear disc, you'd need a valve for that setup. Beware where you buy your valve, and what threads it uses. I believe mine came from master power brakes, and came with a flare nut(line nut) threaded to the rear port. I didnt know why, until i found out the rear port was metric, M14x1.5. So...i had to again modify my new prebent kit by cutting the flare on the rear line, swapping the threaded nut, and re flaring it,...not fun on stainless steel. So if you can....avoid metric threads. The electrical connector on the valve was also different. But once the car was fully converted to front disc, stopping was like night and day. So was steering and suspension as that was all redone at the same time. I hope this helps.

Ya they make that valve differently for power drum or disk brakes up front and different for four wheel disk options as they do for non peer brakes.

@@Nova.1971 wish I still had it. I would learn something & do it up right!

Yes you’re correct this is made to fit a wide range of GM vehicles so you don’t get every adapter. Thanks for pointing that out and watching.

Thanks for the added tip as I should have mentioned it as I knew that . Thanks for watching and becoming a subscriber!!!

Thank you

Ya but glad it worked out, and really what would it cost to tell you or include some in the kit, so it cost a few bucks more.......!!!!

@@Nova.1971 I agree, and why didn’t Chevrolet use multiple sizes? So when assembled there was no question it would be wrong?

who did you buy the adapters from?? It's becoming a pain to find someone who has them.

@@Nova.1971 who did you get the adapters from. I've spent over an hour on line looking and can only find the 9/16" adapter

@@Lonzo_Gonzo1955 it was a pain even when I looked before! It was a mix of summit and Amazon. Which one do you need and I can see if I can find my old part numbers

Thanks for watching!!!

For the most part yes the booster and valve may be a little different but rest is pretty much the same.

The adapters I got for the proportioning valve where as follows. For the front bottom port 3/8"-24 to 1/2" -20, for the rear port 9/16"-18 to 7/16"-24. I picked them up from a local fitting house. you should be able to find them on line also.

Thanks for watching I picked them up at a local hose/fitting house. I would start there. I could send you the name of the place I got them at but don’t know where you live how much work it would be to get them to you. Let me know. Thanks for watching.

@@Nova.1971 Thanks for getting back with me. I live in the state of Illinois.

@@novastar2470 TYped in the size you need on Google speedway motors had both sizes type like 9/16-18 ifm to 7/16-24 iff ❤

If you ask at the "auto recycling center" the should be able to look it up. At least that's wh they did for me when I swapped me 68 Camaro over to front disc spindles etc.

You can hook the lines up to the valve and let it gravity bleed.

@@Nova.1971 My 2001 Ram 2500 has a rubber cap on top (at 90° to the indicator light switch). Under the cap is a button that looks similar to a Schrader valve. I have not been able to find any info on that thing. Edit: Giving it a try tomorrow. Will ignore that thing on the first try.

Ok, bled all 4 wheels. Truck stops & pedal is hard. Two lights are on; ABS & BRAKE. I'm so tempted to push on that valve under the black rubber cap. It'll probably squirt brake fluid in my eye!

@@savage22bolt32 You will need to reset the proportional valve. With typing a long story here just watch this video, that's more than likely why the light is on. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qsuoipt2nquleoU.html. hope this helps.

@@Nova.1971 Thank you!

I got the lines from our local Canadian Tire store and the adapters from a local specialty shop.
