Default Abs delete?

I was just wondering what the cheapest way is to delete your abs system. I figure just doing it yourself with a proportioning valve is prolly cheaper than buying a kit. I just dont know how they want the lines run. If anyone has an directions to what lines go where or a really cheap kit pm me the information thanks.

If you want to build it yourself. We can supply the pieces you'll need. You can view them in the F-body section under braking options.

http://www.sjmmanufacturing.com/cam_brk_ls1.html

A line lock and proportioning valve alone is about 80.00. You didn't start bending lines or creating connections. Better get quite a few lines as you'll probably be bending lines over and over until you get the the way you like best.

You'll need to purchase every fitting, lines and mounting components.

The least expensive and least headache approach will be purchasing our kits.

If you only want the proportioning valve and you go from there...they are on our site as well. ...the valve is ~42.00 or you can purchase even our base kit for 139.99 which includes the proportioning valve with every pre-formed line and every fitting you need as a kit.

The choice is up to you.

Yea ill have to see how much my discount is through work, and if im not mistaken there might be one or 2 kikcing around the shop. But ill prolly need to order the right fittings to go into the master, bc adapters look ugly

Quite a few reasons for our kits, here's a quick 10 off the top of my head:

1) removes mass from front end
2) cleans up engine bay
3) removes problems associated with varied tire diameters
4) enables you to tune your braking systems bias
5) simplified braking system
6) makes supercharge/turbo systems much easier to plumb
7) creates better air flow keeping engine bay cooler
8) lower expenses due to ABS malfunctions
9) less costly rear-end setups
10) brake bleeding is much easier removing the necessity tech tool purge


Our kits can be located in the braking section of our website. www.sjmmanufacturing.com

yea im deleting mine bc slowing down from high speeds my abs engages bc of the difference in tires front to back. and i will be installing a twin turbo kit on my car in the next few years, and one of the turbo filters will sit in that general area. and it looks so much sexier under the hood without that huge bosche abs module sitting there.
