Well I have one in my tunnel!! and it passed SVA but then again it's hidden in the tunnel and couldn't be seen at SVA.

Then I am going to turn it round so it is adjustable.

For SVA just make sure it is fully open as the sierra master cylinder takes care of the bias between back and front.

I asked the bias valve question and the general answer was dont bother with one, but that was for drum rear brakes.

I have one but did not fit it. I'm going to see how the brakes behave before fitting it. if i keep locking up the rears then i'll fit it, if not then it's up for sale. It's a Wilwood jobby by the way!

If you need a regulator valve to pass SVA fit an Uno or Mondeo one --- a lot cheaper.
Most Locosts don't need a pressure regulator -- so unless you have disc rear brakes don't bother.


If you want adjustable bias for competition fit an adjustable pedal box
