Default What brake lines to use on LG C5 caliper conversion?

Trying to find the info with no luck, seems to go either way. I am going to be doing the C5 caliper conversion on my car with the LG relocation braket and will also be doing stainless steel lines. Which brake lines should I use for the front and rears, F-body ones of C5's?

Thanks!

I used my Earl's SS lines for an F-Body

Had to bend the mounting bracket some to get JUST enough slack for a full lock turn, though.

Not sure if a C5 end (opposite the caliper) is the same.

I used Earl's brake line lit for the 97 corvette. Used the fronts only as the rears were to long.
