I did find a few posts, but nothing that would give me a concrete answer.
We dont have a brake specific forum, nor is it really car specific either. I just knew that alot of the brake guys hung out in here.
I have been told it should work.

if you read the topics then you know that some people say YES and others say NO.
there are people who have done it and it worked.
Did you think of PMing them?

thats my guess

Not the way you want it. You can't use the stock prop-valve.

If you were going through all the trouble of that, I dont see it being much more work (except more money) to plumb in a dual master cylinder setup with a balance bar. Willwood and baer and ap racing make setups for this, though you will have to calculate your system volume and pressure etc...
Either way would still be as 'anti-failsafe' as the other compared to the stock diagonal split system.

Too much, I only wanted to do it this way if I could use the stock valve.
