Portioning Valve '86 LXi

[Willy D]

Hey guys, got a couple quick questions I'm hoping someone can help me with. My portioning valve is toast ('86 LXi), I know I can't get this new anymore so what are my best options? I've looked at the Wilwood stuff and would consider that but I'm not sure what part number I would need. Called the company and they weren't much help. Or would it be better to find something from an Integra or something? I would think a 3rd gen would work with my car, which is all stock. I believe mine is a 30/30, but I've heard you can interchange this. Does anyone know/have a picture of how the fluid flows from one port to the other?This might help with the Wilwood option. Just need the car running again. Any help appreciated, thanks.

Some people have rebuilt theirs. Whats wrong with yours anyways?

Mine is leaking out the center hole. The rubber plug is gone somehow. Thanks, I'll check out that thread. I thought I had seen somewhere a picture of how the brake fluid flows through the valve. Have you seen anything like that?

I don't remember that thread but be sure to search prop valve as its also called that here quite a bit.

our prop valves are probably discontinued by now. The willwood prop valve would work. you can try a newer civic or integra prop valves. the mounting might be different but the ratio bias will work and bolt up to the lines.
