For the record, with the ATS calipers the ford brake lines will work, you need a 14100 banjo bolt and it fits just right.

That setup is going to be awesome. Now you will be able to stop that thing.

Guess you will be needing to hide those keys...

More information for anyone that is looking to do this swap.
I used a set of Russell's braided stainless lines I had for the factory calipers, I was able to reuse it for the ATS caliper installation using a 14100 banjo bolt. At full drop with wheels turned to full lock the line still has play in it mounted in the factory location.
The SSEngineering kit worked perfectly and left the rotor centered and the pad has contact with the full rotor area.
On the wildwood prop valve I am using the recommended 4 turn starting point with a cobra booster.


Now some pictures of my mess...
The center picture is a hall effect sensor I am using to watch the wheel studs. I was going to use the stock sensor and tone ring but have to deal with a VR sensor if I go that route.

Are you going to leave the Cadillac script for the posers to scratch their heads over?

Yes I am, they have a nice finish and i intend to leave them just how they are. The rear calipers are red but that may change depending on how i feel once the car is on the ground.
I still have the interior to put back together but before I worry about it...
Tighten driveshaft bolts, install grommets on wiring, move transmission harness, fix a leaking line on the transmission, fill the diff with fluid, figure out the emergency brakes, adjust bumpsteer kit, eyeball the tow, install grease fittings on A arms, plumb the vacuum system, fab up a throttle cable, hydrodip the intake lid, figure out a cold air intake, finish the wiring.... I am sure I forgot something.

I remember when I ran my calipers with the CORVETTE markings on them, I got such crap for that on social media. Nobody could look past that. Now, everyone run's Brembos that say Caddy on them and nobody says a peep. Funny how things change.

It's a considered eco-friendly to use parts that were slotted for the crusher.

Be sure to add a 70's El Dorado hood emblem to complete the look. Maybe add some caddy graphics to the intake or valve covers to throw the trolls off the scent.

I ordered ScottRod panels today, I hope they come in soon. I have been doing small things to get the car ready to get the interior put in, swapping out hood release cables and routing wires. I have to figure something out for the filter, it may be interesting to do with the given space and not wanting to damage the panels.

I also ordered a nice set of locking AeroCatch pins for my new hood, I managed to score a nice 4" cowl hood for cheap. I also found a coupe trunk lid, so that saves me a ton of bodywork on the current one.

I put a coupe trunk lid on my green car. I like it better without the rack.
