I spent the weekend plumbing the front brakes. First, I fabricated a small bracket to hold the remote brake fluid reservoirs just forward of the drivers side footbox. They were initially supposed to be mounted to the firewall but a lot of people complained that they were either extremely hard to get to in that area, or there just wasn't enough room once the engine was in. This new location seems to be the favorite among all the other builds I follow. Second, I began bending the hard aluminum brake lines to connect the master cylinders to the left and right front brake. I was really nervous to start this step, but once I got started I found it was really fun and easy. The best description I have found from other builders is "automotive artwork".
