E Brake Mounting

[FredG]

Hey Y'all,

I am doing my 289 kit, and am just getting ready to drop the engine in and doing the parking brake.
I have been fiddling with the mounting and seem to have 2 issues.

Even using the photos in the manual the handle and mechanism do not seem happy. They are close to the Petty Bar and also close to the tunnel.
I seem to have them in a spot that seems to manage but the cables don't seem to really fit in a way that they will not bind somehow.

I got the Mustang Cobra cables that FF suggested and when run seem a few inches long. Maybe if I sort the above they will be fine.

Any suggestions and maybe a detailed picture of your handle mounting would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Fred .. the other Fred .. the original Fred .. some kind of Fred anyways.

Fred,
I have not mounted my Petty Bar jet but this is what my handbrake installation looks like:

There seems to be room for everything.
