seems easy enough to me. so the rear hole is for the front?
Yes the rear line on master cyl is the front. Just remember to use flare fitting not compression because you run the risk of line coming apart

I hooked up mine using a brake line tee, disconnected both front lines from proportioning valve and connected them to the tee, blocked one of the holes on proportioning valve, used the other hole to feed line lock, then ran the out line from the line lock to the tee. I know yours is in a different spot, but this was the way I hooked up mine, just to give you an example......
Sounds like a lot of work. Also by the sounds of it the proportioning valve is now doing nothing if you pluged one port then its deffeating the purpose of the valve.
 
Nah it was a easy install, only used 2 short flared lines and the tee (plus fittings that go to line lock of course), valve still feeds rear brakes and line lock, brakes and line lock work great.

So is it easiest to just get a short piece of premade brake line for the install?
