Gentlemen,

I'm in the planning stages (walking around and looking) of plumbing the
brakes on my '53 F-100.  While I understand what has to be done, I'm sure
there are a lot of little details I need to know that I don't..   i.e.
Line size, brackets, where's the best place to "T" in the rear lines...
where should the residuals be put and the proportioning valves..etc.   Is
stainless worth the cost over regular steel if I'm not going to show the
truck...???   (I would ask if I should use the Facom or the Snap-on Bender
but that thread finally died)

  I've got disc brakes front and rear (Volare - Lincoln) and using the
Chrysler Master/Booster.   Help save me knuckles and money.....

 Any and all suggestions are welcome... does anyone know of a site with a
good tech article...  the magazine stuff I've read skims the project and
skips the little details that will bite you in the ......   Well, we've all
been there, done that...

While we're at it.... the fuel lines will be next... so.............

john
