Thanks, but it's just a cheap(ish) hydraulic handbrake and mounted the 7 stage bias to it.

More bends in the stainless hardline.

Hey Paul,

I'm really impressed by the quality of your build!
Where did you buy the red brackets for the brake line? A set of them would be nice for my project.

Regards,
Tobi

Thanks, I love the looks of this hardline, but it's a PITA to flare. looks so much better as the copper or steel lines.

Paul.

Cheers.

Not much of an update but there is some progress.

Finished the rear brakelines.
Checked the gearbox, cleaned it, relocated the breather, used new seals and gaskets and gave it some paint.

Hydraulic thrust bearing test setup.
First I made a bracket to mount the bearing in the gearbox



Setup an old master cylinder and tested the clutch.



I miss the weight of the car and power of the engine, but it seems to work just fine. 8)
