brake line routing with firewall mounted mc/booster AD trucks

Im planning on installing a firewall mounted master cylinder/booster/proportioning valve/pedal assembly from CPP in my 52 soon and was wondering if anyone that has this setup has some good pictures showing how they routed the brake lines along the firewall from the MC. I imagine there is only 2 lines coming from the MC, 1 going to both front brake cylinders, and the other going to both rear brake cylinders.

Also if anyone has any pictures of how they routed the lines along the frame to the front and back that would be awesome. Im staying with the front straight axle and plan on ordering the 5 lug disc brake kit from CPP at the same time I order the power brake/pedal assembly. The rear is already 5 lug as it came from a chevy nova.

thanks in advance for any help!!!

Re: brake line routing with firewall mounted mc/booster AD trucks

Here is one pic of the brake line routing on my 54 from the MC. I have others but will need to dig them up. The proportioning value is located on top of the frame rail secured to a vertical plate I welded there. The lines to the rear are run along the inside frame (boxed) to the original (repositioned) brake line mount. The brake line is secured to the frame with rubber cushioned line clamps. I welded 8-32 machine screws to the frame rail to secure these clamps. Will try to get you some more pics this weekend.

Edit: There are a couple of pics of the brake line routing in the following link. The last pic in the album give a good view of the proportioning valve and routing from it to the rear axle
