Hi Doug, those calipers are available places like http://www.pitstopusa.com/detail.aspx?ID=1298 There was a good article on plumbing recently in Hot Rod. I believe you need double flare on brake lines and although harder to work with they recommended seamless SS. With the hot rods we're building we've been using off the shelf steel lines. They are available in any length and you just do the fun arty farty part of bending and fitting them. I think they're aluminised or Cad plated or something anyways, best part is ends are already done. I have some bending tools if you want to borrow them but there is a type that is handy I'd like to find. It has a plier type handle and three grooved wheels. Two on one handle and one on the other. You just put the tube through and squeeze the handles as much as you want it bent. I'll post a few good notes on roll bar install under another thread and have Jeff help us through that install procedure. Sounds like good progress bud keep after it!
