Title: adj prop valve location/LSC valve halp?
Post by: mtgmike on December 15, 2011, 07:32:03 PM
So, where are you guys putting these? Hadn't thought about how our cars don't have the handy junction on the firewall. I can't imagine putting it underneath by the frame...that just seems wrong. Guess I could run a new line like a mustang. What have you guys done?

i ran new lines, so it was a bit easier.. but i mounted mine to the strut tower, just a tad lower than the master cylinder.. you can pull it off with by moving your stock lines around a bit

I put mine between the master and the fender mounted on the strut tower.  It was out of the way, but I ran all new lines too.  I also did 2 proportioning valves just so I could make sure I had the brakes doing what I wanted.

Tom, or anyone I guess.

Thinking about all this today, I stopped by my favorite yard, and got valves off an LSC, and a 00 v6 stang. The mustang is oriented the same, and is 4 wheel disc, so I snagged it first, then saw the LSC.

So, how would I use the LSC...plug the other ports?

Sorry, I flipped the LSC one around backwards when I took the pic. Come to think of it, I think the lsc had the three ports on top???

Ok, the three ports were on top. Saw an SVO prop valve on eBay, had a switch there. So plug the top middle and rear. The other fittings don't match up to the 3-2 kit. So I need conversion fittings stacked on the prop valve??? Jeez, between the 3-2 stuff and this, its going to look ghetto as hell.

I guess Im just half assing it again. Im bleeding it as is with the original prop valve. Ill fix it when the engine is out. Im going to buy some of that cunifer line, and run a new line. I dont have much luck flaring steel line, and there is a 0% chance of getting a good flare in a tight space. And I dont want a bunch of fitting stacked on the prop valve.

Bleh.

New engine swap is going to make a few of you puke.
