It says it adjusts 60% and some many other people have it, so i don't understand why my setup does not work. What i have done today is the following

1. Handbrakecable was removed. Tried the setup and still locks the rear
2. had ferodo brakepads on the rear and standard on the front, so put my set of ferodo on the fronts aswell, still locks the rear
3. bleeding front brakes. Little little air came out, but no difference

saterday i will test the PV on a braketestbench (RR type) to see if it makes any difference. I have ordered a willwood prop valve as back up plan

Does anybody know how much the standard prop valves of ford reduce? I mean the two that are mounted in the front. i still have a set laying around, but also i'm not sure which is in and which is out. Does anybody know out of their heads?

I will also order cheap ass brakepads for the rear to see if that does anything

Anybody that runs the same set up as me? What brake cylinder do you use?

If i would go from 22mm to 25mm what difference would it make? i would say more fluid travels with less pedal movement, so that wouldn't make any difference to a front-rear distrubution.

Are there any brakecylinders with two different size pistons inside? Then it would be easier to send less fluid to the rear and create more brake power on the front
