Talking Re: Brake pressure switch

It would seem to me that installation after the line lock would circumvent the "two step applied by brake" rule. If you install it after the line lock, all you would need to do is step on the brake, apply the line lock, and the line lock pressure would hold the front brakes and the two step pressure switch closed. And we all know the line lock switch can be mounted any place you desire.
Dean, how I am going to do mine is install it between the master cylinder and the line lock. This way when the line lock is applied the pressure switch will not be applied. Lastly, I am putting a switch on the shifter that is in series with the pressure switch, it will only complete the circuit when the shifter is in low gear so that when I am going down track and need to apply the brakes it will not activate the two step. I have seen people put this switch on a toggel to turn it off when in high gear. But I run allot of 1/8 mile and things happen real quick and it is just one more thing for me to foget to do..LOL...Hope this helps
