What is your engine combination? I got one for my folks 72, hoping it plays nice with the 454 in their car. It's not radcal, but far from "stock."

Basically I have been doing all the nit pick, pain in my arse things. I replaced all of the brake lines and the proportioning valve. What a nightmare, I hate pre bent lines. I used two kits, from two different vendors to get lines that worked. Even still, the line from the prop valve to the driver's side caliper hose is too short - neither kit had one long enough. The front to rear main line fit well,thankfully. I painted the underside of my hood, and repainted the tie bar - it had a ton of chips and scratches. I stripped and repainted some parts that weren't the right color/finish. Calipers, hood hinges. (I realize that these parts were not painted from the factory, but it is a driver - trying to look the part.) And, combing over the entire car looking for any small imperfections,and correcting them.
