Does anyone have pictures of how the combination valve mounts in a 67 chevelle disc brake conversion kit from Master Power Brakes. I got my complete brake lines from In line Tubing, they said, I would have to order their bracket in order to mount the valve. They sent two lines to the master cylinder, three other lines but I don't know how they go. Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Keith

Here's a couple of pictures of my MP combination valve. It came with a bracket & lines to mount it on its side underneath the master cylinder. It's installed on my 66.

Keith,

I don't have any pictures but can take some. I don't think I can get the entire line with one picture. I made my own lines as I couldn't find pre-bent lines due to the mounting position of the combination valve. The front line you inquired about is nothing special. I just routed it to clear everything & end at the frame bracket.

Littlehop-go to a salvage yard and looh at the combination valves on non-ABS Camaros and S-10s.I have a '86 S-10.and knew that was how I wanted to mount my (in progress) combo valve, and went looking especially for a mid-80's model.The S-10 bracket sticks straight forward,with the mounting bolts for the valve horizontal.The Camaro bracket turns right,with the valve over the headers, bolts also horizontal.
