Ford Small Block Engine Detailing Power Brake Lines

14 To determine how to run the power brakes and automatic-transmission steel lines off the intake vacuum fitting, we looked through our shop manuals, Osborn Reproductions assembly manuals, restoration guides, and Bob Mannel's Mustang & Ford Small-Block V-8, 1962-1969. Some books showed both installed, like the erector set we built here.

Now we know. View Related Article
