Front Brake line details for Flatout C4
 
Gents, I'm trying to figure out how/where to mount the tab on my frame to hold the front brake lines from the caliper. My front brakes came with stainless lines already so I want to use those, but I'm not sure if they're long enough.

Anyone have pics of this part of their install, and what lines you used/the length of the lines?

Any particular direction work best when mounting the line to the caliper?

Mine is not real flatout but home made flatout, i used stock ‘88 C4 brake lines so they were not anything special. Heres a pic of how i placed my tab.

Any concern with the lines interfering with the coilovers when turning? I cant tell if the tab is actually connected to anything

Will see when they are installed but does not appear to be a problem. My configuration is very much like the corvette original mounting. there is more space than the pics look like.
