Here's the new brake line kit and dual master cylinder from CSSB (Corvette Stainless Steel Brakes). Note: Rear brake line comes in 3 parts given original rear brake line ran along the top of the chassis, and was installed prior to the body being set on the frame.
In order to install the brake lines, we'll need to remove the old steering box, coupler, and steering shaft.
Steering box isn't going to come out, unless we remove the header. ; )
We'll also be removing the old master cylinder
Header can't be removed without removing the clutch cross-shaft.
Here's the original front brake block. We will be separating the fronts (with new disc brakes) from the rears (keeping the original drum brakes)
Removing rocker panel for access to new brake line install.
