I guess it would depend on how detail oriented the project is going to be ..for instance ABS brakes on late model vehicles plumb completely different than older cars in the 50's 60's muscle cars .. or further back they were mechanical rod operated systems and before brake fluid DOT3 / DOT5 hydraulics there was alcohol.... what year,make are you replicating ?
