drag brake setup question
Im currently deleting my brake booster and am only going to be running my front brakes off of the pedal and ive been seeing alot of cars with what appears to be stainless lines running off of a T at the master. My question is where are you guys getting the lines from? And also are you running them straight to the calipers from the master or are you running them to the brake lines in the wheel well?

I run a Ken's Kustom booster delete kit. Wilwood master - stainless brake line to a T, then the 2 lines off the T strait to each caliper. I removed the entire stock front brake line.
I bought my lines and fittings from Jegs - Pre-Assembled Brake, Hydraulic Clutch, and Mechanical Gauge Hose are the ones I use. I used the jegs Male T and I also used the Jegs banjo fitting for the calipers. All -3an sized.

Yep, no problem. Just dont forget that you still need to run something to the rears. Unless Im mistaken, the nhra rules do require all 4 brakes to be controlled by the driver. Doesnt say it has to be by the pedal for all 4. Like on mine, the fronts are controlled by the pedal, and a CNC staging hand brake controls the rears.

Take measurements with string. Route the string where you will put your lines and see what that length is and give in a little extra for good measures.

Yeah, I ran the rears the same. A line from the hand brake resivoir to a T and then to each caliper, with the same fittings. All -3an. I cant remember the length, I think I just ran the max lenght jegs sold on their pre assemble brake lines. Which was 48"/4'. I have a lot of slack though from the hand brake to the rear T, so that one could be much shorter, otherwise 4' actually was perfect.
