I know there is debate about the value of having a parking brake. That discussion is for another thread.
I'm starting to think about the best location for the valve. Some mount it on the firewall in the position of the flex to hardline. I like the idea of moving it up higher on the firewall as others have done to reduce the possibility of hitting the line with your feet, but then the tubing routing isn't as clean due to the diagonal firewall brace.
A third option would be to transition from flex to hardline in the standard location and then locate the valve somewhere between the firewall and the fuel selector valve. I like this idea since it seems the cleanest solution but the control cable would have to be routed further and that may be a complication.
I'm interested ideas and feedback from those who have gone down this path before. I'm sure there are other issues I may not have considered.
Thanks
