Looks terrific! What's the device plumbed into the front outlet on the master cylinder?

I hope it's a brake shut-off valve to deal with thieves.

It's a proportionating valve; we installed front disc brakes.

That valve is required for the rear drum brakes - have you reversed the connections to the master cylinder so the front outlet feeds the rears and the rear outlet feeds the fronts?
