Mount the calipers to the rear of the spindle right?
If you mount the calipers on the rear, on a car with the frame hydraulic hose brackets also on the rear, there's no correct way to hook up a hose. The brake hose should cross the steering axis! No matter what you do, check for going taut, rubbing, snagging, etc. and full steering ock L/R, full jounce, full rebound, and all combos.
You can move the frame bracket to the front (new hardlines, etc.), but then it isn't quite a "bolt on" any more.
Remember that the bleeder screw must always be at the top -- you wouldn't believe how often that "detail" is overlooked.

Rick maybe you need to clarify a part of the statement to say "with the single piston caliper"?? As you know the 66-69 B bodies had rear mounted hardline and caliper from the factory, same with pre 73 A bodies ... it seemed to work ??
