Valve Notes:
For use on 1965-66 cars converting to dual master cylinder or disc
brakes.
This is the distribution block that is mounted below the single
master cylinder which feeds fluid to all four wheels. This block is designed to
replace the single master cylinder block in the stock location. For the first
time, cars can be upgraded to dual master cylinders or disc brakes while keeping
the factory appearance. This block mounts in the same location as the old block
and allows you to reuse existing brake lines.

Details:
Inline Tube has introduced dual master conversion
blocks and we now offer the entire assembly that includes the master to block
lines. To switch to a dual master cylinder, mount the brass block on the frame
and install your master cylinder lines. Our conversion will work with the
original left and right front and front to rear lines. This kit completes what
you need to upgrade safety to your classic. It separates the front hydraulics
from the rear, so that losing a brake line does not cripple the entire system.
This conversion is made to blend in with the factory components. If you are a
dealer looking for large quantity or pricing, call the sales department: (586)
532-1338.
Dual Master - If you are converting to dual master cylinder leaving the drum
brakes, simply mount this block in the same location, hook up the right and left
front brake lines and hook up the front to rear. The 2 top ports are left - the
larger port is for the rear brakes and the smaller port is for the front brakes.
You will have to make 2 master cylinder lines, one in 3/16" for the front
and one in 1/4" for the rear. This block makes conversion a snap.
Disc Brakes - If you are converting to disc brakes with dual master, simply
mount this block in the same location, hook up the right and left front brake
lines and hook up the front to rear. The 2 top ports are left - the larger port
is for the rear brakes and the smaller port is for the front brakes. You will
have to make 2 master cylinder lines, one in 3/16" for the front and one in
1/4" for the rear. With this block, you will need to plumb in an adjustable
prop valve to tune down the pressure to the rear brakes. This valve can be
mounted anywhere in the front to rear brake line.
1965-66 cars all had a single master cylinder with drum brakes.
There was no proportional valve and no disc brakes available in these years. The
tee block that mounted to the frame served as the distribution block. When
converting to disc brakes, the system will need a prop valve. This aftermarket
valve mounts on the frame similar to the 65-66 cars or on a bracket below the
master.
1967-70 cars all had a dual master cylinder, and 1967 was the first year for disc brakes. If the car had drum
brakes, there was a distribution block with a built-in brake warning switch. If the
car had factory disc brakes, it used the drum distribution block in conjunction with a
disc brake hold-off valve, which made the disc cars a 2 part valve. For disc
brake conversions, replacement aftermarket 1 piece valves are available, see
listing.
