Now when making the new lines, do they have to be the same length? And are hard lines better or are stainless better? LIke I read stainless tweaks more under pressure.
They do not have to be the same length to work properly. It is actually the fluid in the lines which moves the same amount on both sides, regardless of the tube length. The longer tube will just have more fluid to make up for the longer length.
Hard lines are better for performance as they do not flex. Stainless Braided will slightly flex under hard braking. For a car that will see hard or track driving, hard lines. If it is more of a show car then stainless will be fine.
Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!
