I just order my set of earl's ss brake lines from thunder racing as well. I'll probably be installing mine on friday. The thunder racing website says that only the 4 outer lines are to be used on traction control cars.

I think you want the Goodridge kit. I ordered mine a while ago but I'm still waiting for it.

They make a line for the TCS, Thunder was selling it. I've had mine on for awhile now. I didn't replace those middle lines. But they do make a line for that. It's not sold in a kit, just individually.
