   Ive just changed my drum beam for a disc one and wandering if u have to use the regulator valve from the disc beam or can you just run the lines to the calipers?

   I'd put a new pressure valve on as when the car is empty it will still have full braking force to the back wheels, and could lock up under braking and I'm sure you don't want that round a corner in the wet ??
