Although the pedal assembly has a balance bar I decided to run a proportioning valve as well:
When I was plotting out the fittings, brake pressure switch and the route to the bulk heads I'd need - quickly realized how little space I was dealing with. It really came down to practicality. The Wilwood prop. valve has the pressure switch built in and with it I won't have to run a T-fitting to split front R/L. The alternative was to make a separate bulk-head to mount everything off of and split from there. Plus, all the added fittings to run the pressure switch. The prov. valve solves all those things, adds some fine tuning and looks trick too.
Wilwood however does not sell a prop. valve bracket for their individual master cylinders so I had to improvise. Some 1/4 steel did the trick as pictured.
It's officially cold out and finishing the brake lines sounds more and more like a spring project.
