So if I put the 16v prop vales on that would fix it...

Anyone have the part# for the 16v prop valves?  I've got them lying =
around, but their probably mixed up with another set of 8v's.... I've =
got too much junk!

  the prop valves are a good part of your cause. i put rear discs on an =
8v before and the same exact thing happened.

    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.
