installing all new brake lines any good diagrams out there. 65 coupe with dual exhaust and front disc brakes. My biggest concern is the firewall section and does it run down the same side as the fuel line? thanks.

It runs on the same side as the fuel line. They both use those funky retainer clips. I don't think I have any good diagrams, but I'll look and see what I can find.

i need pics of the main line under the body for the brakes. My biggest problem is does the front of the main brake line just roll under the firewall and is suppose to connect straight to the proportioning valve? Thanks.

well thats good i suppose, i'll be using an different master dual bowl for front disc brakes. and a wildwood adjustable valve. I still can't see how that line comes up from under the firewall area. I have the main line loosely connected under the car along side the fuel line now.
