Rule of thumb is to keep residual pressure valves as close to master as possible and low as possible. After bench bleeding using a Motive pressure bleeder makes it an easy bleed when working alone.
1” or 1-1/8? Better get it right…. I thought it would be 1” also, but not my dog, not my hunt
Here is a photo from under my 46
With master under floor residual valves are not optional, required either as part of proportioning valve setup or stand alone.
Going to discs later would mean switching to different residual psi valve for front, one takes 2 psi, other take 10 psi and maybe a proportioning valve for the rears for balance.
