They say to be carefull on your first test drive because you will apply the brakes for what you were used to and with hydroboost you will stop immediately and go thru the windshield.

Yes, I used an adjustable proportioning valve. I have 4 wheel disc brakes (chevelle up front and cadillac seville in the rear) so I need to be able to fine tune the bias front and back.
Yeah, You have to watch out for that windshield at first. I used the same setup on my willys jeep on my jeep I worked out great. Nothing like slow starts and G force stops! lol
