brake proportioning
 
I have a 65 coupe drums in the rear, discs up front. I have an adjustable prop. valve but don't know where to set it. Is it set so that the rear wheels lock first, the front first or both at the same time? Thanks for the input.

The main thing is you don't want the rear wheels locking first, or you'll be fishtailing all over the place. I think all four locking at the same time is ideal. Some may make the fronts lock up first, just to be on the safe side. My $.02, anyone disagree?
