RE: Line Locks and install kit. Which brand???
The kit is easy to install, however it is highly reccomended to have the break lines blead by a professional if you don't know what you are doing. Install is about 1-1.5 hours, here's the pics of mine, and as you can see I used braided brake lines because my CAI got in the way but not the intercooler. GMS FTW!!!!!

Ok ihave been look at this for a while now and PMP has all of the fittings and such and they have flexible lines....so....
couldnt you get the PMP kit with jegs solenoids and mount just the same as the GMS, you wont have the mounting bracket but i dont see why you have to have the either. It seems like the flexible lines are needed anyway and they are right about the same length as the GMS.
Where is my plan flawed?

i was thinking the exact same thing and you save $100 ....i am trying to figure out the downside too. i have the wire and i can get my own switch that looks good inside.
And what would that be?

I see you too are from New Orleans. Where did you get your braided brake lines for your car to go with the Line lock kit? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

I have the C&L CAI and the new lines will interfere with the heat shield. There are two solutions. You can remove the heat shield, or you can do what I did, use flex brake lines in place of the solid brake lines and route then below the heat shield. Used them several times with no issues.

How well does this kit Fi with a CAI mounting in the same area????? I have a C&L CAI

Here is a pic from granatelli's web site, I use the same line locks and it has plenty of room without hitting the intercooler hoses. I would have sent you a pic of mine but 2 things have to happen,
1. Finish my coffee
2. Wash the engine compartment before I take any pictures of it, ( I know how you guys are)
.
If you want to see a different angle, I will be willing to do a close up from the top down view, just let me know.
I personally went with granatelli motor sports because it's a dual silenoid system, not just 1.

RE: Line Locks and install kit. Which brand???
I have an slp line lock kit from Summit Racing. Never had a problem with it. It is only 1 solenoid so that is a drawback but it is pretty cheap. Has pre-bent lines and all.
here's a link.
