theoretically they should work just like stock (minus the abs) and the rears will have less pressure going to them due to the prop valve. i know summit has a four wheel prop valve that you can adjust the front and rears with. that may be an option.

PeanutButter,

You might want to run twin master cylinders for front/rear and a manual cockpit accessible proportioning valve to adjust the bias. Easier said than done. Also, use as much hardline as you can. Get them re-formed if this is accessible to you.

I did Laguna Seca with no ABS Oct 2nd. I only locked up on two corners. ABS is a nice safety feature, but not a requirement especially on a race car.

abs is definitely a plus on an everyday street car, but not really necessary on a strict drag car or street track car depending on your driving style

I completely agree. Not having it forces the driver to use more finesse rather than the abrupt transitions ABS will let you can get away with.
