After the conversion I did on the prem ill definitely go for the blue motor. huge improvement! Currently on the lookout!

Does anyone have a diagram showing where the brake lines run and what fittings I need. I'm contemplating re doing the brake lines myself after the success on the prem. Any advice on kits and equipment would be much appreciated!

I found this on fastlane. where do the three lines go?
I'm also asuming that there is a hard line that runs across the front of the car or is it set up that there are 2 for the front and one for the back?

Hi guys,
Well I'm getting back into the build again! About time.
I'm going to tackle the steering column next as I'm about to order the extractors. Because I'm also running a T400 I'm going to use this instead if the factory linkage as it won't fit.

So I have about 5 columns to use for parss but I can't find any info on column rebuilds (in depth)
I have one really nice column shift column, but it has a rubber coller at the bottom, I have other columns without this coller, can I swap everything over into the nicer looking column?

Will both columns also fit in the WB body?
Cheers guys

But are the column body's interchangeable?

**thatotherguy** · 13-08-2013, 03:44 PM

is there a reason you cant use the column with the rubber seal?

**mook** · 13-08-2013, 04:13 PM

Looks shabby from the engine bay side... Am I being too fussy?

**thatotherguy** · 13-08-2013, 04:59 PM

you can use the other type but there are minor differences but i dont think they will cause you any problems

**SLR_dave** · 18-08-2013, 09:50 PM

I just realised that the post I put here the other day about steering column differences was in the wrong place.

My apologies Mook, by the time I finished writing it I forgot which thread I was on!

I've deleted it from this thread and will move it to the steering and suspension section.

I hope you have all the bits you need for your steering column, if by any chance you dont, let me know, I've got various left overs I'll never use, might fluke a match on something you need.

Geat looking build !

Cheers for that Dave, much appreciated (the advice that is)!

I have now changed paths with the radiator fan and now going to run the twin au's which should neaten up the engine bay a bit and help with hp's thanks @thatotherguy for the advice.

But I was wondering has anyone run an electric heater instead?
I have found this ceramic heating element and I'm sure it would work.
