    i am now in the process of getting my rod certified, some things i knwow wont pass and am changing , questions to anyone. does the stock gm nova master cyl have brake residual valves for front and rear drums built in or will i have to install them and also has anyone put the nova clip on a longer wheelbase car and had to adjust the akermansteerin ackerman g angle. i think it can be adjusted by shimming the front of the steering arm on the spindle . i dont know? my rod steers great but am told as my wheel base is over 15 inches longer than stock susp i have to make shure that angle is correct. my wheel base on my bucket is a long 130 inches.
    the residual valve is part of the proportioning valve, its not in the mastercylinder. do you have drum brakes on the front?

    you adj. your akerman by repositioning the drag link or bending your steering arm. but i dont see why, if you are using a nova clip. if you change the wheel base, what does that have to do with the akerman?
