I would also agree that the original shuttle valve should be eliminated


NOTE: the shuttle valve IS NOT the same as the proportioning valve.

Entirely different purpose for each.

Each can cause you trouble, however.

Most all Panteras can do without the proportioning valve. Only a full stock brake system might find benefit from the stock unit.

Most Panteras should probably retain the shuttle valve, as it is your safety net to allow retention of one end brake action should you have a tube/hose failure.

Read my (long winded) post in the above referenced thread to understand what the shuttle valve is really there for, and how to live happily ever after with it retained in your system..
