i believe you are correct with the c5 lines, not positive though. to be completely honest, i am drawing a blank with the abs. i will try to get back to you tomorrow if i remember. i would have personally went with kore3. they sell brackets that allow you to install c5 z06 calipers and others up front. requires a 17inch wheel though.

The lines you have will work, C5 lines will work as well and give you a bit more clearance.

I'm assuming you are changing the hubs. They should be the same so there is no reason to mess with the ABS wiring. Just plug it into the 98+ hub.
