Anyone have any good ideas on where to mount the break dist block?

What brake hardware are you running (M/C and front and rear calipers)? The answer is probably not to use the distribution block, but no one can tell you for sure until they know what you have.

donh5599,
I really spent a long time deciding what to do with that thing. I could not in good conscience put that ugly piece on my car with all the plumbing. I would recommend using a line to the front and one to the rear with a proportioning valve. If you have a MC with only one port you can get a very reasonable one with two. It will simplify your build and you will have more flexibility for upgrading it later. I'm not saying the OEM system won't work. It's just good to have the flexibility to customize the system to your usage. IMO. Good luck, WEK.

Yes, mount it on the wall of your garage.

Agreed, that was used on Mustangs w/ approx. 55% FRONT weight bias. It is not needed, and is actually detrimental, in a car w/ 55% REAR weight.
