Just get a T or 2 and use them with the adjustable valve.

As noted earlier... I have all new stainless lines for a 72. I'd like the car to appear as stock since I got the line already and they line up with the stock valve. Make sense?
The one I have would need to be rebuilt (over $300)... OR I could gut it and use it as a junction. |

if i remember correctly you can buy from mopar(i remember reading about it in some magazine), an adjustable prop valve that will work with any system, then you can adj the front to rear brakes...

Hi MOPAR, Any chance you could look up application Years and Models for the 322 5664 valve for me please ? I have a 322 5666 valve (like you) wondering if that is the p/n '5664 valve ? Thank you, Jerry

I have(had) the same valve in a Matador. I found a direct replacement and it bolted in no issues.It looks different but it functions the same and the everything lines up perfectly. It is part #Pr-102 and available from inline tube https://www.inlinetube.com/products/PR102 |

Both the early and late valves are called "combination valves" because they do several things -- distribute brake fluid, hold brake light pressure differential warning switch, and have a proportioning valve for the rear brakes. The one with five in/outs also has a metering function which holds off applying the front brakes until ~100 psi is built up so that the front and rear brakes apply at the same time (takes ~100 psi to overcome springs in drum brakes). That was only used a few years, then engineers realized the fraction of a second really didn't affect anything, so the metering function was dropped (not just at AMC). So you can use either valve and be perfectly safe. The five in/out valve has two ins and three outs -- one for each front wheel and one for rear brakes. The four in/out eliminates one of the front brakes. The opposite front brake is fed from a T, before going into the combo valve. That way if either front caliper leaks it will throw the warning light switch (wouldn't if the T was after the combo valve).
