I have LS1 brakes on the front and rear with Hawks HPS pads and a LS1 master cylinder. What rear pressure and brakes are people running here.

Re: How much rear brake pressure do you run...

Im not sure what pressure im running but what i ended up doing was putting the rear of the car up on jackstands, putting it in gear and just adjusting the prop valve until the rear brakes grabbed the rotors and held them. Its not an exact science but it seemed to do the job for me

Front brakes are stock disks, rear are stock PBR with 11.5 inch rotors.
