Anthony,
I would recommend you skip the stainless brake lines and go with copper-nickel alloy. It is much easier to work with; no cracked double flares, and very easy to bend and will not corrode. Look at
www.fedhillusa.com for information. They sell the original European alloy called Cunifer (Cu for copper, Ni for nickel). NAPA sells a chinese copy but it is 40% lighter in weight with noticeably thinner walls ( I weighed two 25 foot rolls of 3/16 inch line, one was NAPA's and one Fedhills). It might work, but for my trucks I prefer to stick with the original alloy that is used in some European cars. Let us know when we can come over for pizza!
