I'm trying to finish up my trailing arms and need to establish the final position of the parking brake cable bulkhead. Since I don't have my motor yet, I was wondering if any of you V8 guys have pic's of how close the cable is to the headers or exhaust pipes. If it's beneficial to have them routed something other than stock, I would like to change it. If there are no clearance issues, then I'll place them in the stock location and be done with it. Thanks,

Andy

No clearance issues at all, just put it back together stock.

John,

Thanks for the pic's. That's just what I was looking for. That said, the parking brake cables on mine take a distinctly more looping path than your's. Using your example as a guide however, It looks like I'll still be ok.
