What Proportioning valve to use with rear drum to disc swap?

What proportioning valve did you guys use when swapping from rear drums to 9 Bolt w/ discs? I am most likely going for a Wilwood Prop. valve, and am also gettting Goodridge SS braided brake lines as well. But I just wanted to know what prop. valve you guys used, just curious?

you can get the wilwood **** type from both Jegs and Summit for like 30 or 40 bucks. I believe that is the most popular one used. I will be installing one along with my rear here soon.
