Default Single to Dual exhaust conversion

Hey guys so we're putting dual exhaust on my 1966. I got down there and realized the brake lines need to be moved anyone got pictures and a list on everything that needs to be done? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

You'll need axle lines, dual-type hold down bolt, rear hose, hose-to-body bracket, and long line extension. Glazier/Nolan make the extension and body bracket, the rest are commonly available.

So basically this is what I see and this what i think is a vent of some sort is clearly in the way. You wouldn't happen to have pictures of this would you?

That is both vent and retaining bolt. The hose from the vent inserts into the chassis to keep water out.

I'll second everything 2+2 said.

What exhaust are you going with? Please don't say Flowmaster.

I'll third it. FWIW, the factory GT/K-code exhaust is a direct bolt in once you've got the brake lines out of the way. Sounds good too.

That Magnaflow a great choice too. My friend has that on his car and its nice.

I'll also agree about the K code exhaust. Had I know about the Arvinode setup a few years ago, thats probably what I would have gone with.
