havent taken any shots hehind the dash. nothin really diff than what others have done. mounted prop valve to spot where srs unit use to be. braided line comes from bulkheads on firewall to propvalve n from propvalve to front fenderwells n rear brakes its all hardline. the 3rd braided line goin to firewall is for the clutch res which is relocated to under wiper cowl.

Does anyone know the correct banjo fitting used to tap off of this brake master calender?
The hardlines i made are not as clean as i'd like to see them. That sharp bend off the side outlet is so damn close to the shock tower!

I haven't been able to find this so far, although I'm sure it's within the 500 pages of this thread...Is it possible to tuck the fusebox in the passenger compartment while still retaining Heat/AC/Airbags?
And I think I know the answer to this, but is there room for the OEM battery tucked behind the fender liner? Just bought a new battery last year, not looking to have to buy a smaller one!
How are you guys splitting up power off your batteries? Just a new terminal with multiple openings, or some sort of termination block?
Thanks!

Isn't this going to show through the bumper?
Not a big fan of the AEM sticker. I think the AEM coupler is enough AEM advertising in one place. May I ask where the valve cover color came from? It is very bright. Is that the color of the outside of the car? Looks nice and clean.
Just a suggestion for security purposes. I know back in the day that if a theif wanted this car and knows this car that he would simply stab that battery and go sit for a few minutes till the battery died from drainage and then towed it off. Why not make an enclosed box that was also a security feature. And yes stab right through the fender.
Have a good one.
