Looking to install a Line Lock on my 2000 WS6. Was woundering where can I find the best unit and what would it run me? How hard are they to install?? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks..Michael

Thunderracing has a line lock kit for the LS1. Its about $215 bucks I think, and that includes everything. Pre-bent brake lines, fuse, switch, solenoid, relay, etc. I've heard that just about anyone can do it. How mechanically adept are you? If you can change you own oil, your probably good to go. I plan on buying one this month. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Will someone who's installed one like to elaborate?

my advise: order the hurst roll control from summit for $108. then buy summits line loc installation kit for $27.39 (SUM-G3904). borrow a flare tool and make the whole thing look like this:

Mystic - you have the Biondi? I saw that in the summit catalog, but was concerned that it was so cheap! Is the quality good?

I have the "Thunder Racing" kit. Very complete and well documented.

But I decided to use my foglight switch for arming, and headlights for safety switch.

Anyways, I don't use it anymore. It's easier to just do the 3-foot shuffle. I installed it for Wifey.

As Pat said, line locks are for women and little boys... <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

I've used those for years with no problems. Not as flashy but work just the same.

bigSS ... sorry I didn't get back to you. Kinda lost track of this thread. The Biondi's have been around for long time and it is a very simple system - less to go wrong <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

As far as line locks being less than manly. Well I've offered Pat his shot when he comes up this way. And Terry if we pull together the GM shotout at Famoso in April ... I'll give you yours then <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0">

I had the Biondo lock up on me when I was stopping to come on base. The damn thing just locked on.. The sad part is that it did not even have power hooked up to it. I have bent lines for it if someone wants them...
