Renegade Hybrids suggests doing away with the rear proportioning valve for their LS1 V-8 conversion, and replacing it with a T fitting. I know in stock configuration this could increase the likelihood of rear lockup. My car has the stock MC, stock 914-4 rear brakes and 911 "M" calipers & vented rotors up front. It'll also have a bit of tire stagger, 205s in front and 225s in rear. Will a T fitting be OK with this setup? Thanks!

Depending on your driving style the 21mm front torsions may dictate a heavier rear spring. With 21mm torsions and Koni Yellow's all around I moved from 180 -> 225 -> and now will be trying 300's in the rear.
