Especially if you use them for clutches since you absolutely don't want residual pressure. If you have uprated axles you might not need residual pressure valves as much, since the pads won't be knocked back so readily by axle flex. <div><br></div><div>Generally people don't put residual pressure valves on drum brakes, though it's not a terrible thing. I had a five pound RP valve on Peyote's rear brakes for awhile and it reduced pedal travel without causing drag. I used 15 pounds on the front. I don't think there's anything on it right now, but it's at Tony's so I'm not sure. <br><div><br></div><div> <br><div><div>On Oct 1, 2008, at 7:26 AM, Mark York wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div lang="EN-US" link="blue" vlink="purple"><div class="Section1"><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; "><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; ">Amici<o:p></o:p></span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; "><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; ">A quick question to the TR3 gang, I understand that the new Girling master brake cylinders already have the restrictor valves built in to them.
