Can you turn you brake bias all the way to the front to do burnouts?
What about line lock, can you put that on a C5 or c6 Zo6??

I had a line lock.
You just have to put it in the right place.
If you want I have the solenoid I can sell you...not rocket science. Solenoid, power, switch, brake lines in/out.
$35 shipped if your interested. A kit will run you more, all you need is a cheap radio shack switch of your choice, wire it up, and fab up some brake lines. It goes in the rear circuit. Pump up the brakes, hold the fluid with the solenoid, let go of the pedal, rears stay, fronts let go.

Alex Zanardi used to dial the bias all the way to the front to do his victory dough nuts, but if you're about to make a pass I wouldn't think it would be the best decision you ever made unless you plan on keeping an accurate count of the turns and adjusting it back before taking off. A line lock or roll control is the right way to go about this, as it doesn't effect bias under normal operation.
BTW, to clear it up, the line lock solenoid goes on the fronts to hold them when you release the brake pedal, freeing the rears...

I agree about placement of the Line Lock belonging in the front circuit.
Also, be aware that if the C5 is like the C4, then ISO/DIN (aka: bubble)
flares are used on the OEM tubing, not the older double flares.

Long day yesterday...I typed that out while watching the Wings game...yes the line lock goes on the front circuit.
Figure I'd know that since I've had one on a few different cars
