It will all get painted again as well.The way it's routed is well you see the M/C goes into the top of the proportioning valve.then the front bottom of the prop valve goes to the "in" on the line locks.then the 2 "out ports" go to each front brake.peace

I would ditch the line lock first to at least get the brakes working normally, then add the line lock. Did u bench bleed?

Jack the rear of the car up and try to get the MC level. You might be able to get it to bleed out that way. Worth a shot.

Otherwise, gotta take it out and bench bleed it

yes you need to bench bleed before going any further. that will solve a lot of problems and questions later on. I ran into a lot of issues when I swapped to 5 lug and starting from the top down fixed all the issues. If you dont it just compounds at each component. good luck.

Ok last time i benched bled a M/C i was 17,so to make sure it's correct?Take the M/C off fill it with fluid and push the plunger in till both ports flow?peace
