Do you still have the stock drumbakes at the rear? If so, you will get problems with locking the rear wheels. But, you still can build in a proportioning valve, so you can adjust brake balans in car.

run a split in the middle of the axle to both sides and just blank of the other out put as that should help

well i have now found out that it is my handbrake master cylinder that is buggered as i put a pipe in to replace the handbrake and i instantly had brakes again
i didnt even bleed the system and the foot pedal was as hard as a rock :D so ill get a wilwood master cylinder from driftworks and see if that works

and today i temporarily sorted the giant hole in my down pipe using a monster energy drink tin, copious amounts of exhaust paste and 3 jubilee clips for good measure lol rough but by god the car is quiet now 8) good enough for me :D
just waiting for my new ebay spec down pipe to arrive...
