Ran 11.14@126 with new setup. Only could build 4psi at launch and then the car would start to push. What are you guys doing to build more boost at the line? I only got one run as they told me no more. My setup is stock bottom end ported irons and roller cam with a TA64 turbo tuned by Cal with XFI.
First time out with new setup

the brake on the th400 will be rev manual constant pressure valvebody
youll also want to make sure your driveline is up to the hit (driveshaft , ujoints, yoke, axles, wheel studs )
85 s10 and the cheapest shoes (organic ) buy two sets use the long ones,

the summit brand is basically the hurst but cheaper
the biondo requires less fittings (only has in and out port ) and cheaper yet
nhra says after the prop valve but the biondo on the fender works , short line plumbed to the master on the front brake line to the inlet port with the oe coiled line plumbed to the outlet with fittings to convert to 1/8npt ,
or cut the line, double flare on some 3/16" nuts , get two 3/16inv flare to 1/8npt adapters for the line lock solenoid

no diagram ,
the line lock takes 1/8 npt fittings for in and out , if you get the hurst youll have to get some plugs to plug the extra outlet ports
you need a short 3/16" steel line (6-8" is fine )with the end for the master cylinder (front brake side ) and 3/16 flare at other side , they usually keep the premade lines on a rack behind the pro desk . if you cant find the hose pre-made with end for master then get what you can and hit the adapters drawer or the rack for an adapter think its 5/16 inv flare
once you have the master to 3/16" you need a 3/16 -1/8mpt adapter for input and an 1/8 Mpt to 5/16 inv flare to connect the stock line
what you can do is pull a line from a car at junkyard and flare the other end with a 3/16 inv nut and then geta 3/16invflare x 1/8npt adapter for the input to the solenoid
the easiest if you can double flare is to cut and flare what you have , i have a hydraulic flare that makes that job cake
even easier is call cottons and order a kit ready to bolt in .BR107

Scot at GNS has a kit with everything including a nice powder coated bracket that you don't need to drill holes to mount

Tie a rope around the E-brake handle and engage it when staged. Push on the brake pedel hard and build boost. Then all at once, pull the rope and let off brake pedel.

Maybe I missed it, but do you have braided brake lines? It's an $80 generic G body kit from Jegs...between the braided lines and S10 wheel cylinders, I can build some decent boost! Made a HUGE difference off the line
