Combo valve relocate and 455 headers

So, what’s the general procedure for relocating? Will it require new lines, custom made, etc?

Just thought I might pick someone’s brain with firsthand experience.

If you have an automatic, I've been able to move the combo valve to the top of the frame rail using one of the pre-drilled holes where the bracket for the clutch equalizer goes on MT cars. I was able to do this by hand-bending the existing lines without disconnecting them. Obviously this won't work on a car with a clutch.

It is an auto.



Might these be said holes? Where frame turns down to go under firewall. Directly under master cylinder.

Yes. You'll only be able to pick up one of them, but that's enough.
