Brake Regulator locations 914-4

Does anyone have a picture of where early 70-73 brake regulators are mounted on the lower firewall? I have a six conversion and have been convinced by Eric Shea of PMB Performance to relocate the regulator vs. using a T-fitting since it can't stay in it's original place on a 75 car. I just want to see a pic of the early location. Eric mentioned you can use an early regulator that has the output fittings at the top vs. where they are on a 75 and just use early hard lines as well.

If you enjoy flying off the rainy roads backward... two friends lost their teeners. One almost lost his life using "T" fittings instead of the factory pressure regulator (it's not a proportioning valve and it does not restrict the flow to the rear calipers... until you need it to).

Read the page in the factory manual and "understand" what the pressure regulator "is" before giving bad advice.

...just say'n
