Does anyone have the experience and time to briefly describe any needed tricks to delete the brake compensator on an early car / This, so as to make way for a 6 engine mount?
Things like / Is more brake line needed in addition to the "tee" fitting? And is the tee a hardware store item or another "porsche-priced" item that would be metric, brass, and overpriced by 3x?... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) Sounds like a good time to change out all brake fluid as well. I have heard the warnings if one is running 914-4 brake calipers / I am not and have nice beefy 911 calipers which will do the job up front verses in back. Thanks in advance.

In summary, I am going to move the damned thang once I get my motor mount in the car and I know where it will fit without interferring with oil lines, thermostat, wiring, fuel lines, brake lines thereto, and a host of other simple things to deal with.......

Thanks for the input. Sidebar: My attorney recommended deleting it...... after carefully documenting which engine mount supplier directed me to delete the valve, then,.. right after I kill myself in a hideous fiery accident, allow him to help my lovely wife sue the supplier so they can live happily ever after.
