Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
I have everything pretty much figured out for my hydroboost swap on my 76 except where to put the inline proportion valve. Does it go after the stock brake proportion block, before it or replace it? I would think before to regulate the bias to the rear and have the "benefit" of the brake warning light?

Re: Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
You shouldn't need another proportioning valve. '76-'77 had one. Prior years only had a distribution block.

Re: Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
I guess I can run without one and use the stock block and see how it goes!

Re: Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
I used my stock H block with my hydroboost. I had chevy disk on my rear 60. it would lock up the rear first, but not super terrible.

Re: Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
i have the stock drums on the rear, was reading on CB.com that most people have to put a after market proportion valve to dial down the rear bias.

Re: Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
Or switch the front calipers to the t-bird calipers. That pulled my bias from the rear to the front. They fit the F150 brakes, not sure about the stock Bronco disks.

Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
So I see most are using the Camero master cylinder, is this the best one? What about an aftermarket aluminum or others? Do I need to just find one with the right bore size and passenger side outlets?

Re: Hydroboost on 76 bronco question
I believe the 1978 camaro MC is the correct one.
