70 Velle with SB and Hooker Super comps 1.75 tube. I know it needs to on the output of the block so I was thinking on the frame rail or inner fender. What ever would give me the cleanest install. Engine is out of the car now so I'm not sure how close the headers come to the frame rail?

I have a 70 Camaro setup laying around with block up buy the master. I'm thinking that might be a little cleaner???

Pics would be cool!

Thanks bro's

I used the 71/72 block mounted right under the master cylinder on my 70, it's clean, and mounted the line lock off the mount for the vac booster. Had to make a bracket but what else is new.

Damn easy to install if you look at the brake line in the bottom right of the picture (the one with the safety spring around the line), that line is the one that actually goes into the metering valve. All I did was move that line down to the outlet from the Hurst roll control valve, and then added the new breakline from the metering valve outlet to the roll control valve inlet. Make sense. The braket was just a piece of scrap aluminum I had laying around. It was just that easy.
