Default Stainless Brake Linesm Preference

Is there a proven brand that is preferred by the group? Any brand that I should avoid?

Thanks

I assume you are talking about the Braided lines to replace the rubber one on the calipers right?

Yep.

I also have to replace every single brake line on the car. The kid who decided to make this car a bracket racer, removed all of the lines. It was a real shame. This car only has 40k miles on it and is straight as an arrow. The engine bay was stripped clean also. I've replaced al of the missing parts except for the brake system.

I just bought new C5 ZO6 brake calipers yesterday. I havea 90 BCM and need to buy all steel lines this week. Does anyone have a diagram of the lines and BCM connections? I have this other 90 body from #444 that I can use as a template (lines are still there) BUT the BCM is gone and I don't where/how the lines connect to it.

I have near new drilled and slotted Baer Decelerators that I will be pulling off soon to install 2-piece Eradispeeds.

If you haven't bought rotors yet these would be perfect for you and I'll cover shipping.
