LS1 Brakes/LS1 Master, No Front hold, lots of rear?!
Hey Everyoen.
I put together my LS1 brakes with my stock drum master & prop valve, and it was **** to say the least so i dumped it.
Put in an LS1 master, and since i didnt have a disc prop valve, i used an LS1 Master cylinder, with an ajustable prop valve for the rear.
For the fronts, the front feed line goes into a T, which feeds to each caliper.
I bled all the brakes, and found i had full braking power at the rear, but non at the front. The rears flowed alot more fluid through the bleed screw then the fronts, which didnt flow too much. There doesnt seem to be air in the system, and i dont see where it could be plugged?
Need help!!!!

Quickly should add that the brakes in the car that i pulled the master off worked, or atleast they stopped the car.
Could both my calipers be bad?
