That should work great. Would also change to SS hoses at the calipers too.

 

I already have Wilwood stainless flex at the calipers. 👍

 

I used them for my brake lines. Those ones fit great. Only difference was I used OE material and not stainless.

 

Just make sure the SS fittings are perfectly square. They will not pull in and seal like OEM materials. I use a long socket to “finesse” the fittings when required.

 

So, the stainless version is a bit finicky with alignment. Is the OEM steel still good quality?
Steel today isn’t as good as steel built 50 years ago in the USA.

 

Maybe a little more care is required for SS. But it looks awesome and lasts forever. Have exclusively used it for brake and fuel lines on my Chevelle, 2 Vettes and a 2003 Avalanche.

 

Considering the difficulties associated with stainless I'm thinking mild steel may be the better choice. True the steel may not be of the same quality of years past but considering the pampered use of most classics the mild steel will probably out live all of us.
That being said I did use stainless steel lines from Inline Tube on a Silverado (all the lines) and did not have any issues. Inline Tube may sell OK products but their employees I found to be some of the most despicable people of any I've ever dealt with. Pray you dont have any issues with their product.

 

If you have any belief in YELP reviews read them and be careful.

 

is that the vendor or the SS lines?



SS gets such a bad wrap. Honestly, it’s mainly because installers think it seals exactly like OEM (get it close and over torque it to seal). If it’s not square… it will likely leak.

do it correctly like I suggested and it will seal properly

 

I’ll say this much. In my entire life I have reported one company to the Better Business Bureau. Take two guesses which one that was.

I just used this kit and had zero leaks on install.

 

It says; “Pro Shop members only”.
Guess I’m not part of the secret club. 😁
Anyway….. I ordered the Inline Tube OEM steel version. Hopefully it arrives without issue. Thanks everyone.

 

Used the steel version on my '71 and they worked great.

 

I just installed their stainless brake lines on my 81 Camaro and did not have any issues at all. Still easy to bend and manipulate if you need to.
