Question line lock 2001 gt

Hi, I have a 2001 gt 4.6 mustang that I have just paid off and I am looking / thinking about adding some go-faster goodies to it. As of right now it is a bone dry, straight from the factory gt. I would like to put pipes on it and maybe some gears in the rear. I also wanted to add a line-lock ( locks the front wheels up by trapping brake fluid in the front brake lines so you can lay some serious rubber! ) to it. My question is: Is it possible to add a line-lock to my car and how do I go about doing this. My father has a 1970 mach 1 that is pretty juiced up and he has one on his car. But you have to figure that it is a 1970 model and not a 2001. My car is way different from his ( of course ) because of the traction control, computer technology, and the ABS braking system. My car is also a 5 speed. I have cross-footed the car ( with the traction control off ) and laid some serious rubber down before, but I really don't like the idea of doing it that way. I feel like this task can be done, I just don't know how to go about doing it. I do have some brake bleeding experience, so I could install the line-lock. I dont know where to install it in the line - in front of or behind the ABS sytem - in front of or behind the brake line junction box just after the master cylinder - or wherever! I would greatly appreciate any technical advice you could give me.

Thanks,

Unless you are going into serious racing you really don't need one. But they are very useful. The only problem is I don't think the can be used on cars with ABS. All of the line lok kits I've can't be used on ABS cars. There is probably a way to make it work though or someone has to make one for newer cars.
