Which Braided Stainless Steel Brake Lines To Go With? StopTech? Earl's? Goodridge?
Hey guys, putting together a C5 Conversion as some of you know and would like to know which brake lines should I purchase?
StopTech? $59.99
Earl's? $89.99 - $129.99
Goodridge? $89.99 - $99.99
I think there is 1 or 2 more I am forgetting. So any info would be greatly appreciated. Also, why are Stoptech's cheaper?
Also, since I will be running C5 front rotors, do I purchase rear F-body LS1 separately? Or should I just purchase a Corvette Kit and be done with it???
Thanx again!!

I sell mostly Techna-fit lines. About $150, but have specific kits for both ASR/TCS cars and "normal" cars (6 and 5 lines respectively). DOT approved and with a better than average covering over the braid (which is prone to cracking in a matter of weeks on some lines). That covering is to try and keep dirt from between the braids, as is the rubber covering on stock lines (which use braided fiberglass inside).

I installed some Russell lines today. They included 6 lines (2 for TCS). The fronts were a little shorter than stock, but they were fine at full turn. Be sure to use the copper washers on both sides of the line at the caliper. They will leak if you don't (I found out the hard way).
