I would like to see how you have installed your brake lines, distribution block/proportioning valve and line lock on A body, big block cars, with Supercomp fenderwell headers.

If you've got'em let's see'em.

Thanks!

Sorry but no picture. I routed the lines from the master into the passenger compartment. The proportioning valve and line-lock is behind the drivers side kick panel. The brake lines got back out through the floor to the wheels.

I just rerouted them out of the way toward the firewall and down to the stock position of the proportioning valve. I also have my linelock right by the valve. Everything is on the inside of the frame. Don't know how well the pictures will show up. Actually can't see a darn thing. I will try to get some pics tomorrow for you.

Just wondering, but, I just went through all the work of moving all my brake lines out of the stock position, because it was right next to the flywheel. Does'nt NHRA rules require all brake lines inside the frame rail to be surrounded by 1/8" thick steel tubing 16" long?

I was just thinking the same thing. I read a note about it somewhere and thought, dang now I gotta move mine. Then forgot about it until your post.

I predict NHRA will require replacement of all brake lines every 2 years.
