Talking You are the artist ;)

You are the artist, and therefore the vehicle is your canvas.

Design the changes in the fuel line reconfiguration how you see fit as such. With a factory manual brake car, the brake lines are actually longer than the factory power brake C3's, so at least it ought to be easy for you to elegantly massage the brake lines into accommodating the factory power brake MC location further forward - usually the "big red EASY BUTTON" on that aspect. Have you received your replacement 1 1/8" bore MC yet? I'm hoping you can pound this bad boy down the road this weekend!







BTW - Your sign is AWESOME - JUST LOVE IT!



Semper Fi !

Thanks the MC came yesterday and the sign does get individuals attention. Remember there is nothing stock on this car except the body.

Talking Stock body?

The body looks pretty heavily "massaged", so I wouldn't call it stock by any stretch! But is sure does look great - love the paint scheme.

I will say that the Hydratech mounting plate is machined very well and looks great. I hope to have it mounted tomorrow.

Paul I assume the clevis is going into the manual hole (top) in the brake pedal, at least that is where it lines up. Also I was planning on going to the reservoir vice the tee fitting for the low pressure bleed line but it is higher than the fitting on the pump. Does that make a difference?
