project 88 se
#31
ok i got alot of the brakes done.
I swapped out and cleaned the vac booster and all the stock hard lines put the reman 88 tII master w/ porportioning valve in. Assembled all the fittings and ran lines. Thought for while about where to locate the B&M line lock, first thought that i had, was on the drivers side strut tower but decided if it was in the middle of the car it would be easier to create equal length lines to the calipers, so i opted to put in on the firewall then split the line right after the line lock , then ran my front caliper lines. and ran a single line to the back ill finish that on wendsday hopefully.
i also mounted my 3 bar map sensor and alli the rest of the engine bay stuff just waiting on summit to send me a fitting so i can finish my fuel sytem then just need a few heater hoses and a couple brake line gromets. then the motor can go in
ill post pix in a little bit

well actually I've Been slackin on the interior for the moment I'm just trying to get this thing running before spring. Really the only things I have in leather are the rear carpet and am still in the process of covering my center console lid. I'll try to clean up the back and get some pix for Sunday but I'm probably gonna spend most of the day putting my motor in

Ahh fair enough... At least you have your priorities straight. I won't have a chance to even look at my 7 until May, but at least in the meantime I have the Formula SAE car to work on. Best of Luck to you on your project. It's looking great so far.
