And I don't know why...

Could have something to do with my screwy brake mix and match...

Rebuilt M/C for an 8v.
16v brakes front & Rear w/SSlines
stock 8v prop valves.

has gotten worse recently as I've gutted the car and removed the =
bumpers. (gonna race it)

Has anyone used a proportioning valve from like a 87Golf GTI (w/rear =
discs) my old GTI had a distrabution block on/near the axel so when the =
rear of the car lifted under braking the pressure to the rear disks was =
reduced not causing lockup...  would this work for the roc? Also was =
going to relocate the battery to the rear to help w/ weight =
distrabution. BTW I'm running neuspeed sports (springs) if that makes a =
difference.

thanks.
