94 FD Brake master front vs rear port locations

Wanted to confirm the ports for the front and rear brakes off the master cylinder for a LHD 94 FD.
The scanned copies of the FSM are not hi res enough to see how the lines are routed.

according to a DNA garage video i saw:
PASSENGER side is for the front brakes.
So should be teed off to the front brakes.

DRIVER side is for the rear brakes.
And has the two way bias adjuster in line.

My setup for reference, UIM is off so not sure if itll clear the intake elbow, hoping it does...

Dual banjo on the pass side port and goes to both front brakes. Bias valve connects under the master to driver side port and to the hardline going to the back.

Thanks!

Wouldn't bugger about worrying about sides, the front port on all FDs serves the front brakes.

Boosting this as I have seen several old posts that conflict with the DNA video + when people refer to ports as "front" and "rear" it's unclear whether they are referring to port location on the master, or actual front/rear brake line ports.

Also the FSM doesn't show what lines go to what ports.

Can anyone confirm what line goes to the port closest to the firewall?

So with the passenger side (closest to firewall) port hooked up to front brakes and then driver side (front port) hooked up to rear brakes, the car works. I can adjust the bias valve and get it to lock up the corresponding sides appropriately. I have a review of the Chase bays kit in another thread and cr-rex confirmed that should be the correct orientation, the instructions and video from Chase Bays directly is incorrect.

For RHD cars the forward MC port (towards the front of the car) is the front brakes, and go directly to the “F” on the OEM abs proportion valve.

the Rear MC port (closest to the booster) is for the rear brakes.

Just spent an hour zooming in on internet pics because my RHD car had the brakes all routed terribly, and the ABS unit already gone.

Couple of posts above stated this. Front port serves the front brakes. Would be nice to confirm for the LHD cars. See ABS delete kits out there routing this backwards.
