Help! Can't find proportion valve for my Z

I had a nice little accident in my brothers, now mine, '83 Z28. He didn't tell me the brakes lockup real easy. Anyway, I think it's the proportion valve, but the dealer said they stopped making them for my 4-wheel disc in April, too little to late! They were $75, so I'd like to stay in that price range, anyone know where I can go. Remember, the kicker is that it's a 4-wheel disc, which was special ordered from the dealer when new. thanks,
Tim

Thanks for the help anyway. Just to make sure, that is the part # for the 4-wheel disc brakes. One of the parts shops in town said he might be able to help if I could get the part #. I doubt it, but we'll see. Anyone else with any ideas, PLEASE?

Maybe get a prop valve from an 84 and put metric tube nuts on the end of your lines?
