It looks like it's coming along nice. I've been holding off on the wiring because I'm not too fond of it either. Those light will let everyone know your stopping. They look nice.

Miles of wire... miles of stainless plumbing.

Just a wee bit of a cut.

Trying to find a place for all this stuff, hide and keep it serviceable is nuts.

and the death by 1k paper cuts continues.

Brake master cyl, clutch cyl and steering column are in, using Mean Streets brackets. The clutch cyl reservoir will be hard plumbed.

Steering column is in, with a custom bracket that mounts the column low in the firewall.

Went manual brakes. Didn't have room with the down bars to fit the Baer Re-Master... now have one for power/hydro assist disk/disk since it was easier to buy a new one with smaller bore than change the bore I had.

More things going on than coming off these days.

Went with a rear sway bar from my friends at Ride Tech. Love that it fits exactly where I thought it would. Nice adjust-ability, too.

I ran my Harness through the firewall above the bellhousing behind the motor. it's almost all hidden except the injector wires. My coils are mounted down low on the frame under the headers and hidden too.

Yep, we're hiding most of the stuff we can, my fenders will cover all the stuff you see.

Today's lesson is all about math. How to make a manual brake set up really work... requires leverage and drilling the brake arm to get it right.

We did that, with the help of Baer. Might do this on my black GMC.

I did find a set of Carbon Ceramic brakes I am noodling on.
