Whos runnin line locks? Info, pics and comments if you have them. Thanks

 

Wow, Firstly, welcome to TMS. Secondly, I was JUST getting ready to start a thread on Line Locks. Lets see how many respond here; I might ditch the idea of making my own thread.

 

I just wanted to get some peoples opinions of the different setups. Also would like to see how they mounted the system and controls.

 

I have Paul's High performance. It's a complete setup. Very easy to install and works great!

 

David has the best I have seen out there however they are 300 bucks and the brake lines are not performed as they should be for the price. He did it for the article in Hot Rod magazine. A word of caution. The correct fittings are difficult to locate so do not purchase a kit unless all parts are included.

 

Paul's High Performance does offer the kit complete with all of the fittings for the 05, I installed my set after seeing David post pics of his. It wasn't that bad but finding a shifter with the 12V switch I like is a different story. Here is a pic of David's installed.

 

did you install s shifter **** with the switch in it?

 

that would be a bad idea

 

I don't believe he has yet. They are hard to find. Mr. Gasket makes them in rare production runs.
I don't think it would be a bad idea. I've seen lots of cars with this setup. It would be hard for me due to how I grip the shifter. I place my palm on top of the shifter and bring it around to the 7 o-clock side for my 2-3 shift. Dereks current shifter is a pistol grip. The button is typically on top where you would never have your palm.
You can press the line lock button all day long and it wouldn't do anything but close the solenoids. The only time it will effect the brakes is when you have built brake pressure in the lines. You have to step on the brakes peddle hard to build enough pressure to hold the brakes.

 

So, as far as anyone knows, is the PHP kit is still the only one on the market?

 

Why?
The rear of the shifter would be great for me. Rest hand on shifter and press switch with finger. I am currently trying to locate one. Anyone know where to purchase or even search?
