I left the '71 bolts that stick into the firewall and made a template for the '14 hydro setup. Drilled 4 new holes for the '14 hydro in the firewall and 2 holes in the hyrdo plate. I enlarged the original center hole and used some nuts on those bolts as spacers otehrwise I would have had to make the center hole too big IMO. I took the old shaft and mated it with the new hydro shaft that attaches to the pedal.
Between an '03 Denali, an '02 Escalade, and the '14 Van I was able to piece together the hoses that I needed. The only thing I bought for the brakes were a T fitting, 3 unions, and several 1/4" Invert flare fittings. I used as much of the original '14 brake line as I could. Brakes are bleed and work great except for one fitting where I think the inverted double flare may need redone.
