Technical Copper-nickel brake lines

That’s the way to go. Used it on my ‘41 Plymouth. Easy to bend. Look into line straightening tools to get a good straight line for the frame rails. Simple trick is to just drill a hole in a piece of wood and slide the line through it. Use a bending tool! Tweak bends with your hands. Make sure you put fittings on before flaring and in the correct direction! Haha!

 

I used Nicop on my 40. I also used it on the fuel line. However, for the fuel line it had a black flaky stuff that clogged my fuel bowl within minutes. So I went back to rubber for the fuel line. I’m about to switch it out for braided rubber.

 

Something strange here... obviously black flaky stuff would be really bad for brake systems too.
Actually worse than for the fuel system.

Yeah, that's not normal. The particular piece of line you were supplied with must have been contaminated. All the stuff I've used was bright shiny clean and remains that way in use.

 

Well I don’t know how I feel about you cheating and giving the answer to the whole class?! I wanted the class to review the periodic table...

 

You're thinking of straight copper. Nicop is much more forgiving. The average flat rate tech is a complete dumbass and even they manage to work with it.

 

Oops.....

 

Now it'll be on the final! Good going...‍
