Here's a picture of the brake proportioning valve and 10 lb. residual pressure valve mounted on the drivers side frame rail.

Modified Lower Radiator Hose
Here is the modified lower hose to keep the surge tank on the LOW pressure side (water pump inlet) of the system. Not the most elegant but very functional. I found a glass filled nylon "T" taht is 1.75" and has a 1.0" fill line for the surge tank.

Canton oil thermostat
ERA 289 FIA with Canton oil thermostat. This is the drivers side hose run to the cooler.
Off-set the Canton thermostat cooler line outlets by taking it apart and rotating the segments. The segments can "clocked" in 90 degree increments, so the oil cooler hoses can exit on opposing sides. Made plumbing a lot easier in this installation. Fewer angles in the swivel fittings helps avoid any restriction on oil pressure.

Cooling System Pressure Test Hose Connection
I tapped into the side of my expansion tank to check for potential cooling system leaks with 10-15 psi shop air.

Low Oil Pressure Warning Buzzer
Has a delay timer that allows you to start the engine without the buzzer sounding. If loss of pressure buzzer sounds immediately.

disconnected Paxtons
I disconnected the Paxtons for a different flavor. Glad I did - I found a vacuum leak at one carb - never noticed it with positive pressure. Idles better, too. Now I have a track day option.
I considered giving the Paxtons a break for the Summer but she didn't run any cooler. Lesson learned.

Clutch MC and brake MC in reverse positions
This shows the clutch MC next to the steering shaft with the brake MC mounted behind it to the fender well, with the clutch MC activated by this odd bellcrank type arm that may be messing up the pedal ratio. Trying to sort out why my clutch is both super heavy pedal pressure AND has to go all the way to the floor to disengage. Anyone know if this is a standard shell valley setup? The other end is a hydraulic throw out bearing, looks like a Tilton.
