Can i use the PBR proportioning valve with my iron calipers? The PBR prop valve came from a camaro with single piston fronts and the aluminum outback.

The proportioning valve is designed to provide the best braking performance for its application. To that end, I'd personally use the valve designed for the Delco-Moraine calipers. Will the PBR version work? Yes, but how effective it might be in comparison to the correct valve I have no idea.

Also, you'd require the 1st design valve to fit your 87.
