Hey Rac65...
The key to bending the new lines is to find a bending tool, take it slow, and practice first. Honestly, before starting this project, bending the lines was my biggest concern, but after bending the first line, it wasn't anymore.
The tool I used came from Harbor Freight. It was around $7 and made the project a lot easier.

1. When flaring the tube, use a wrench to tighten the flare tool as tightly as it will go. If not, the tube will move during flaring and ruin the flare.
2. When you start bending your tube, start with the smaller brass fitting side. When you get to the other side of the tube and you are ready to cut it to size, you will have to flare the end. The longer fitting that seems to come with every tube length I bought, will cover over the mark left from the tube flare tool.
Hope this helps...
