Brake Distribution Valve Pic/Info - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone have pics or be able to tell me the differences in appearance between a Brake Distribution Valve and a Brake Combination Valve (Proportioning Valve). I have a 70 chevy with a disc conversion and am trying to figure out which one I have.

Thanks!

It would be a lot easier if you could post a pic of yours if you are able to.

Could be wrong. But the distribution Valve doesn't have the centering button and is more square edged shaped the Proportioning Valve has the centering button and has more rounded edges.

Here's a pic of what I have. Is this a distribution valve? If so, I am going to the junkyard tomorrow. What kind of vehicle can I snag a proportioning valve from?

Looks like it isn't a PV to me..From a gm vehicle with front only disc would be great. Maybe a silverado PU. Get the short lines also into the top from the MC just in case also.
