Line Lock Installed with pics

I recently installed a Fastbird line lock on my C6 great product took about 2hrs to install and bleed the brakes. Had a few problems (Bad solenoid) gave fastbird a call and received the New solenoid the next day Great Customer service Highly recommended

Looks really good... how easy was it to install? Minus the problem you ran into with the solenoid? Were the directions pretty detailed? Did it come with the mounting bracket? Let me know!

Thanks for the comments it was not bad just time consuming running the power wire from the solenoid to the switch was a back breaker and a little tight taking out the main front brake line other than that it was not Bad at all you guys with manual trannys will love this mod easy way to make a nice burnout with out getting out of control

here is a pic of the the line that needs to be replaced ,most difficult part of the installation

I'm going to install one before I take our '07 stick car back to the drag strip again. I have one on the race car, and I'm old and spoiled. Thanks for posting the pics.

What will follow will be a twin disk clutch, 4.10s, hardened output shaft, DTE brace, ET Drags, skinnies, and a 100 shot. Similar sequence of changes to what I did with what is now primarily is a race car and has evolved in to a 4.6L 10 sec stick shift turbo convertible.

A line lock is the start, not the end.
