767Jockey Doug don't get mad at me but those are not safe connections for the hard line going to the stainless. You need flare fittings on both sides like is what's on the caliper. That nut setup with the flare could slide off. The line looks fine for the bends. That brake line will get for 1,500 lbs to 2,000 lbs of pressure depending on your master cylinder and size of bore. IMO that is a weak connection and is use on low pressure applications. The steel lines will look fine with a couple of coats of silver hi temp spray paint on them. Tape the fittings and spray the lines and let dry. Rick L. Ps you are not a QUITTER, you sometimes have to find another way around a problem. If it was easy and simple EVERYONE could do it.
