ls1 & 1LE brake swap quesions
My car came with drums 2.73 rear end now has a 3.27 9 bolt disk. I have all the calipers just need the brackets. My question is will a proportioning valve from a 4 disk 3gen work. What would happen if I do. The 1LE PV would be best or do I need a aft mrk 1 thanks

The 1le is not made for ls1 fronts, so it would still be lacking. I think I will go with stock 4 disk PV and upgrade l8r to 1le. I don't need that much stoping power in a car with no abs. The wheels would lock up and that's no good. And 1le rears I was talking about lt1 rears I know they the same but just to let u know
