Thanks for starting this topic. I was going to build emergency brake brackets for my leaf-spring car, but have been holding off until I got a little more information. I was wondering if it was possible if I could get a picture of what things look like when it is put together for the emergency brake system. I was also wondering if the emergency brake system was the same for a small block and a big block car? When I was looking around on Nick's site I saw that he has emergency brake handles and the cables. They are listed under 427.

My plans call for a bracket for the emergency brake with a hole spacing of 2.375 and spuds of 5/8 diameter and 1 inch. My plans only show the 5/8 one as being threaded. I am really glad you brought this up, because if I had made the brackets and had to cut the spuds off to replace them, I wouldn't have been too happy. Thanks. If you can post a couple of pictures, if not Thanks for starting the thread and making me aware of a another possible problem in my plans. Mark.
