brake line and park brake
NOTE: This photo shows the valve in the wrong flow orientation! Silver fittings should be on the brake side of the valve (right of the valve as (pictured)

Harmony, you are indeed correct! I played around with mounting and the valve handle too much while pondering the brake lines routing. Easy enough to flip the valve body and handle. Thanks for the catch!!

nice installation, but I thought that the one way valve end was supposed to be on the brake side( to the right in the picture?) so that pressure in the line would be transferred to the caliper, (trying to install this valve in my 701)....just wondering

Good deal Dave. Will be curious how you do it and how it all works. I have clecoed my parking brake in the same area only in a horizontal orientation.
