Roger;
By now you have gotten plenty of information on SS brake lines including
their high cost. An alternative I found are the cupro-nickel brake line
sets made and sold by Automec in the UK. This material combines the
best of both metals and the kit is complete including a special wrench
and new pipe clips and comes in a special oil-resistant box, perfect for
the garage floor. Every pipe is color coded and is just the right
size. They are not pre-bent and require a special 3-16ths pipe
bender(available from Eastwood). Unlike pure copper, once bent its best
not to bend again more than a little bit. They are not that hard to
install, just take one pipe off at a time and use for a template. The
cost is a little over a $100 and they take orders by phone and accept
Visa and MC. Phone 1280-822818. No financial interest-----
