FRNT resivoir-metering valve-LF of dist block
REAR resivoir-rear of dist block
FRNT of dist block-LF brake
RF of block-RF brake
LR of block-prop valve-rear brakes

here is a diagram:
http://1968firebird.org/illustrated/brakes/disc1.html

this top pic has 2 mistakes i can see.
to correct:
1) picture #13 as it is labled
2) label #16 as it is pictured

(stick #13 into #7, and call #14 a metering valve all the time instead of just some of the time.)

hope this helps

I picked up a Chiltons when I first got my bird. It's essentially worthless. Go on e-bay and pick up a repro 67 Pontiac service manual for less than $50 and the Firebird supplement for $15. You'll be glad you did. Or use the on line 68 manual at the above link.

i like my chiltons manual for my bird.
it helped teach me how to work on cars. i wore it out and bought another.

i have chiltons and haynes for other cars, and the one for my bird is the best of them. no wiring diagrams though, and the factory manuals do have a lot more info and pictures.

Are you refering to the Pep Boy's Chilton? I don't know much about Chilton's other than it's there, and there may be a difference between the shade tree issue and the professional issue. Also, I cannot say yea/nay on Chiltion's becaue I worked from GM Service Manuals, and Mitchell's Collision.

In addition to my 69 Pontiac Service Manual, I have a 1970 Motor's Manual.
