I got all the lines installed. I ended up using 3/8" brake line. I only needed to make two flare ends and my flaring tool set decided to quit after the first line. I did do a couple of practice pieces first, since I hadn't made flares for a while. The threads on the flaring tool decided to lock up. I had to remove the T-handle on threaded shaft that makes the flare, and welded an old socket on the end of it. Once I got the threads free I put a lot of anti-seize on the threads and kept running it in and out. Works better than ever.
