To realize the max performance of your brake system, make sure the "proportioning valve" has been removed from your car.

Its the damn proportioning valve that kept the brakes from performing their best, and influenced the opinions of the magazine writers.

If you still have the proportioning valve, follow the tubing...you'll discover its plumbed to reduce power in the FRONT brake circuit! Not the rear.

Normally front brakes get full hydraulic pressure and are modulated by the driver's foot. The rear brake circuit will have a proportioning valve to prevent the rear brakes from locking up. It should be obvious if the rear brakes are not locking up without a proprtioning valve, then the Pantera brake system really doesn't need a proportioning valve at all. This is one of the oldest fixes for the Pantera.
