ummm
for the drags correct :)

tap into teh rear brake line BEFORE the diff
the line locker will need to be place in line obviously

a simple push on/off switch will be fine

u will need a flaring tool as well

hhmm, another way to do it (was done on my uncles 69 mach1 fastback woot!) is use on the front brake line.
you press your brakes down, lock the line, and release the brakes. this way, you can use your clutch and accelerator and not have to be holding down your brake. then when your ready to take off, just release the line.
booyah! slingshot effect (or not....)

sorry, im a bit hypo when it comes to E world.....

so to put it simple, best to put lows up front and superlows at the rear for ef's.

how much would you be looking at for the springs, pedders shocks and struts??? **and a camber kit, can you do the price of camber kit seperate as i already have one, but thought would be good for others to know**
