This rear passenger side brake line was one of the more frustrating things I’ve done on this Bronco. Turns out the Can Cooker is about the same diameter of the pumpkin so it was used to bend the curve

I was just discussing one of the most Jekyl and Hyde engines I have driven. Something that is completely tame. Could drive it all day in rush hour traffic, with a manual transmission no less. Super mellow driver. But drop the hammer and let the tach swing and it was completely different. Jam on the brakes, and back to grandma driving it. And now the flame suit for the hate mail, an LS7. While the power is impressive, and I have driven stuff with that kind of power before, never have I had it teamed with such mellowness. That was a half dozen years ago and still the most dynamic windows of driving experience I have had. It's fairly easy to make big power, it's a lot harder to still have it drivable.

My Jekyl and Hyde reference was more that hers will be the nice Dr Jekyl and mine will be the nasty Mr Hyde :)
