Ok, I definitely don't want to stir up a debate, but I'm just not comfortable with the plastic brake line materials called out in the plans for my 4. What I've decided on so far is individual aluminum reservoirs from Spruce that screw directly into the master cylinders, along with prefab Earl's SS braided lines running from the master cyls to AN elbows on my side skins. From there my options are:

1. Hard lines down the fuse and gear legs mating to short prefab Earl's lines at the calipers

2. Custom length Earl's lines all the way from the side skin to the caliper.

I'm interested in hearing people's thoughts on either approach. Also, can someone tell me what type of hard line is typically used?

Steve ...this option is probably easier to implement, and reduces the number of joints (potential leaks) in the system.

Go for the easy way, which is probably the same cost, since you save a set of fittings.
