Hello,
I am writing from Germany and would first like to apologise for my less than perfect English. I found this brake master cylinder on the Mustang Steve site (description below). This cylinder can be used for disc/drum and disc/disc combination. As far as I know, drum brakes need a pre-pressure valve so that the seals of the wheel brake cylinders are in contact and tight. The proportioning valve only reduces the pressure, or can it hold a pre-pressure ? How is this solved in this master cylinder?

Thanks in advance
regards
Uli
