I thought you had to use the brake valve doodah to stop the arse end locking up, it needs bolting on at an angle if I remember right and usually mounted in the start of the trans tunnel.

It makes no difference fitting the inertia valve, because when they test the rear brakes on the rollers at IVA the car is stationary, therefore the inertia valve doesn't do anything.

Gus got around the bigger 9" drum problem by fitting smaller Escort wheel cylinders.
