there will be a brake bias valve beneath the booster or on the firewall - your mechanic is speaking from where he shits.

you will probably need the bias valve from an MA61 (i think) - or if you're keen, you buy an adjustable valve (A few hundred $ these days?) and keep testing/changing until you get the front brakes locking up before the rears lock.

however, you should first check that the rear brakes are actually operating? or that something else is awry? it sounds like the front calipers are doing all the work? are you pushing in a long or short way to get braking effort? is the braking effort gradual or sudden?
