[DeTomaso] Any interest in dual (no booster) brake MC conversion?

[Thomas Tornblom]

Nice paper!

It is interesting to see this paragraph about the prop valve:

---
Due to the design of this valve, it should never be used on the front 
circuit because force output on the front should always directly respond 
to driver input without any limitation.
---

The prop valve design in the Pantera is really bad, but we all know 
that. The problem is that without the valve, the brake system becomes 
even more unbalanced.

I guess it is time to address the bad brake balance, where way too much 
go to the front brakes.

Cheers,
Thomas
