Default Re: Hold off valve for 69 Nova disc brakes?

Bill, correct info about the frame valve not used on Nova. FYI, the hold off valve is the round one, holds off the front disc's till around 40 psi is sensed at the rear. Keeps the car from nose diving.
The frame valve used one Camaro is a pressure regulator for the rear drums.
Good explanation @ CRG.

Vendors never use the correct names.
Enjoying the build pictures.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Thanks Mike. That's one less part I have to deal with. I also needed to know so I could order the brake lines. They offer a 2 piece front to rear brake line, but it sounds like that would be for Camaro only.
