    Notes
    Universal design. 100 to 1500 psi range, up to 57% pressure reduction. Uses 1/8" NPT fittings but includes 2 1/8 NPT to 3/8-24 inverted flare fittings.

This device lets you adjust the front-to-rear braking balance by proportionally decreasing the rear (or in some cases the front) brake line pressure. Can also be used to adjust individual front wheel braking in dirt track applications. Valve weighs only 5.2 ounces and has two .25" side mounting holes spaced 1.00" apart.

  • Allows easy adjustment of front to rear brake bias
  • Universal design works on all race cars
  • 100 to 1500 psi range, up to 57% pressure reduction
  • Accepts 1/8"-27 NPT fittings

Compensates for weight transfer to the front wheels during braking. All factory brake systems allow for this in some fashion. An APV allows you to "fine tune" a street or race brake system and thus prevents severe rear brake lockup under moderate-to-heavy braking.

Q:

i have recently got a race care with this product fitted, it says turn clockwise to increase and turn anti clockwise to decrease but it doesn't say what, so if i turn it anti clockwise does it decrease the rear and allow more front or if i turn it clockwise does it increase the rear and allow less of the front or is it the other way round ,i'm sorry if this sound stupid but its all new to me, although i do see the benefit as i have rear drums . please point me in the right direction. Tony
