Running brake lines around Doug thorley headers?
You guys have any pics of how you ran your brake lines up to your master around your headers? My headers are kinda tight up to the frame so wondering best route to run them.

Re: Running brake lines around Doug thorley headers?
Tight spot. Can you go outboard of the column and then over to the frame rail?
Another option is a "through-frame" connection. Have seen on some custom lowered trucks where there's actually a junction that the brake line screws into on the inside and on the outside of the frame. Might be an option, or at least give you some more leeway in how you route them. Speedway has them http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Stainl...RHcaAlNo8P8HAQ |

Mine are coming up the outside of the frame, still need to the final tie in to master/pro valve.

Re: Running brake lines around Doug thorley headers?
Now that you started changing so many things on the truck, might as well finish it up with an under floor master cyl/booster. Just a thought
