by Buggsy Tue Nov 30, 2021 10:42 amConverted front brakes with the Wilwood system and wanting to try and use a proportion valve without changing the MC. It's a '67 so it already has a dual reservoir. Any part #'s or thought to add? I know a lot of you have done this conversion, any ideas will be helpful......Good to be back here.

I'd probably get an adjustable one like this LINK HERE.
You could try it with the MC you have then if you end up with a different one you'll already have the ability to adjust the bias front to back.
There are various stock types you could try but they're each factory pre-set. Adjustable valve allows you to play around with setting to dial in what feels good for the combination of how your vehicle is and your braking style.

i used the mc from a 1973 dodge b van , they had front disc rear drums but no booster so that valve might be your ticket
hope that helps
