Since they call them 'Proportioning Valves', I'd guess they have a proportioning function which we don't want. Also, Dave Lenzi tested several brass valves and all of them had a proportioning function. John L. says the 'HighwayStars' valve is superior to all other brass valves, so if I wanted a new brass valve that duplicated the function of the OEM steel combination valve, I'd buy one of those and disable the proportioning function per the CPP datasheet.
Again, I'm not running one of these valves, nor do I know anything about them... However, they have an online chat feature on the Inlinetube website, and I initaited a chat with someone at the company, and they confirmed the disc/disc" proportioning valve is a 50/50 split front to rear...

The valve is also made in the USA, if that matters to you. So this may be an alternative to buying a valve and modifying it... But again, I don't have or run one... Just throwing this out there as an option someone might like to consider...
