Well doing a little mock up on the motor before installing.
And a new tail shaft bushing and seal for the tranny too.
This thing will be going together soon.

The master cyl. is for a 67-68 firebird manual brakes. I wanted it
to look some what original. I had a friend of mine make me a wedge
out of a piece of alluminuim and I mounted my master cyl. on the top
bolts instead of the bottom ones for more clearance for the lines and
so I could run them inside of the fender wells so it would give that orignal
kind of look. Worked out pretty well. Theres more about it in the earlier
pages on this sight and pictures too.

Nice setup! Did you elongate the through hole in the firewall and is the pushrod at an angle! John
