My LS1 e-brake setup

[SamHatco]

Sam,

First off, very cool Firebird!

I was just looking at your e-brake set up. what did you use for cables(sheaths)?

I also checked out your FQuick page and noticed you are using SW headers. What steering box are you using? What mount are you using? How close is the passenger head to the fire wall? are you using a modded oil pan or an aftermarket pan? If aftermarket which one and how is the fit?

I'm doing a 69 Camaro in about the same as yours. LS1 brakes all around, Lee steering box(soon),SW long tubes, S&P style motor mounts(my passenger head is 1" from the firewall), either going with a Canton or CarShop oil pan(soon), 1996 camaro steering column.

Thanks
Billy

Billy,

Thanks for the compliments. The cables I used came from an '02 trans am rear end as did the calipers, brackets and other hardware. I used the BRP Hot Rods adapter plate that centers the caliper over the rotors. I have the Carshop motor mounts (plenty of clearance at the firewall), S&P modified oil pan, hooker headers, and factory ps box. Hopes this helps. Buy the way you need to empty your mail box, couldn't reply to this message by pm.

Sam,

Just for clarification purposes, you flipped the ebrake lever within the backing plate on the passenger side?

Thanks,
