Just after as much info as possible on a hurst line lock install on my '54 oval.  Do I go from the inlet of the hurst line lock to my dual master cylinder and use the two oulets of the hurst line lock to my front brakes, one for the left brake and one for the right brake? Does it matter what outlet from the dual master cylinder I block off?  Or do I use one outlet from the hurst line lock to a 'T' piece, then to the front brakes?  Do the outlets of the hurst line lock need to be lower than the outlets of the dual master cylinder (because of gravity)? Cheers for any input

plug either outlet on master cylinder, use line lock to split to both front brakes and you can mount it higher than master cylinder and it bleeds just fine, just did it that way on my 67

Ok, thanks

So no 'T' piece
Also is there a particular way in bleeding, I have heard of a few issues with the operation of the line lock

The line lock works like a "T-piece".


Just bleed the brakes. It will flow through the line lock as long as it's open (no power)

I did think that, the instructions just look a bit random!!
