Joe,
No. That is a proportioning (pressure reducing) valve.

Joe,
I had one I sold to Larry Stock years ago. He has several I think.
To be clear, you are talking about the shuttle valve/junction block where severa
l brake lines and the brake light switch connect, not the pressure reduction val
ve in the front brake circuit.
