It's a good, cost-effective upgrade that is sufficient for the street. I also upgraded my reservoirs from the tin cans to a nice aluminum set from Wilwood, which looks nice.

I will be checking it out. This Camaro SS brake line kit, I thought you went with braided?
Got any pics of the new Wilwood cans. The single reservoir that is on my car scares the crap out of me every time I look at it. To me it is not separate brake systems as I have read in the manual. All I know is if for example I spring a leak in the rear brake line line, I will lose my front brakes and my clutch because it is all sharing the same fluid. That will leave me stranded on the side on the road (no clutch or brakes), or smashed up! That is almost the same thins as the single master cylinder set up on my old 55 Chevy!
The separate cans would isolate each system for sure.
