Hey there 70CHEVYBB,
I was in your situation a few months back regarding the firewall. I welded up the holes for the parking brake and harness. To mount the harness, I welded up two bolts/studs on the inside, by where the factory one was. For the parking brake lever I also welded up two studs on the inside and cut slots on th parking brake itself to mount on the inside of the firewall. For the harness I’ll drill a hole near the tunnel and for the parking brake cable I’ll either have it come out near the booster or maybe one of those cut to size cables and run it towards the back of the driver side fender. My harness appears to be one of them basic kits. Closest i found it to be was from JEGS. Worked perfect before I tore truck apart. I’ll see if I took a pic of the harness.
