Starting to work on brake lines. I have a roll of 3/16 nicopp line and all the fittings and a Eastwood flaring tool but suck at bending.... would it be better to order pre fit lines?

I know the pre fit lines won't line up with my master cylinder (DSE) but dont mind bending some of the lines. Main one's I'm concerned with is the front one that goes under the motor on the subframe & the one that runs to the rear

Any suggestions? Thanks

I used the prebent stainless lines from inline tube on my Firebird. I have the Wilwood m/c and all the lines worked well with it. I was very happy with the fit and appearance. I added the hardware and clips for a very nice install.

I've done the Pre-Bent route to save time & it worked fine. I also used Inline Tube.
For me, I just needed to tweak certain areas vs. needing to make every single bend. Work smarter.... not harder.
