    Never used them, but heard great things. I always seem to change something up where OEM fitment won't work.

    I've gotten stainless tubing from both Inline Tube and Cl***ic Tube [www.cl***ictube.com] and have been very satisfied with both.

    If you want stainless double flared brake or fuel lines, I highly recommend getting already-bent stock replacement lines or lengths of straight tubing with the ends already flared. Making double flares on stainless tubing at home is really tough to do without cracking it.

    I had old,weird rubber lines on my Mustang II front end. Lord knows where they came from, I sent one to Inline.They sent me the right parts,with the right fittings for the right price and right quickly. Can't do better than that.

    I recently was looking at a $150.00 brake line flaring set-up at a car show, and the sign next to it said you couldn't use it on stainless steel tubing! I asked how much it would cost for a set-up that would work with stainless, and the salesman said you could use an ordinary flaring tool, "BUT" you have to get annealed stainless tubing. The tool isn't the problem, the un-annealed stainless is the problem......Anyone know about this.?..........Anyone know where to get annealed stainless brake line?

    FWIW, I've made stainless brake lines using the stainless that Summit Racing sells. Seems to work fine for me, but then I was only single flaring it, and it sounds like you want to double flare. I'd recommend Aircraft Spruce for annealed stainless. If they don't have it or can't get it, it probably don't exist.

    (doesn't say it's annealed, so you'd have to check on that)
