I am ready to start running lines on the Daytona. The one issue I have is where I really want to run the line to the front just happens to be right where the back header is closest to the frame.

The master is very near the front down tube. I have a very clear path there if I go along the tube and down to the frame. Only thing I see is that will put the line higher than the master.

Any problems with that other than bleeding?

Other question is on stock brake systems they put the loops in by the master for vibration resistance. Are those needed on a track only car?

Thanks!

Got room for a small heat shield between the pipe in question and the line? Keeping the lines below the master makes life a lot easier, but if there is no esay way, bleeding will be your only issue. A pressure bleeder ( through the master resevoir ) can solve the bleeding problem when the lines have to be above the master. Forget the line loop thing. You won't need to do that.

No problem on #1 and no you dont need the vibration
loops... I didnt have the room to put the loops in
but I put them through a rubber grommet to kill any
vibrations

Thanks guys.

I may have to refigure my routing anyway. Just going to the down tube doesn't leave me anywhere for the line lock solenoid.

You can put the line lock anywhere before it splits...
doesnt need to be right off the master

Stopped this morning and picked up the rest o the fittings and hoses I need for my front brakes. Will be interesting to see how this turns out. Hopefully it doesn't look like it was done by drunken illegals.

As long as the drunken illegals are't from Poland you'll be okay Seroiusly, I wish that we had no illegals(regardless of thier country of origins) in our country or work force
