Sure, it'll be available. I'm moving forward with the black master since I have some plumbing ideas and may utilize the prop valve with the integrated front tee.
Did you ever install the proportioning valve and the remote adjuster?
New spacer so the pushrod is at the correct clearance to the MC piston

When do you need this?
I'm toying around with brakes this week. I should know which one i'm moving forward with soon, but otherwise the standard Wilwood 1" master with proportion valve as sold through TSE/949 will be available. Never installed, but measured and handled.

I'm not in any hurry but can move on it when you are ready.

Waiting on fan bracket from machinist. Also looking for some wood for a splitter. Things are standstill at the moment regarding brakes for the moment. I'm unsure if I should use the tee'd proportion valve, or the one that everyone else uses. I'll have to figure out how to install the remote bias adjustment stuff, or if I even want to bother but I know I'm using the black master cylinder as it fits perfect with that small bullet spacer for the pushrod.
I don't know anything about ducting, I may try to tackle that while the bumper is off.

Ive literally spent all day trying my hand at cardboard templating and ducting. I got absolutely no where. The plastic was way thick and didn't want to give up its curled Form. Whether or not the templates are of any use, I think ultimately there's a lot going on with wiring even without the a/C condenser. I admit pure and utter defeat and have gained no ground and ended up taking more parts off the car than I had started.
Aidan suggested leaving the plastic roll out in the sun with weights which im doing now till tomorrow. I don't know how invested I'll be with this now. May just slap on the lrb under tray and throw together a splitter thanks to the guidance of several forum members.
Ducting. Black magic. I'll probably need to seek more experienced help to guide me through this as I feel I'm on over my head with this one.

When? I'm trying to get my car up and sorted for the colonial cup challenge /weekend hpde at summit (4/20-4/22) but will gladly take the trip down to sort this out and hang. I'll have some splitters cut next week but probably won't be running it since I have no wing yet.
