Brake upgrades


Turb02

Recommended Posts

I need to replace all the hard lines on the car, what size do I need and how many feet?

Now I plan on getting a bbk in the future and if it is better to only run single lines, let me know now so I dont buy more brake line than I really need.

Also if I go single line with the stock booster, should I replace the MC with the 7 series that I have seen talked about? If so what year 7 did it come from.

The car isnt running right now so it'll be a while before I get the brakes but since Im replacing the motor and cleaning the engine bay (and every other ares as well) I wanted to buy the brake line and fittings.

Any thoughts/suggestions on size of line and fittings or specific type of hard line. Im not restoring the car and will be getting a roll of brake line, just need to know the questions asked above.

Thanks everyone,

Dane

I buy the premade pieces- y'ever try to make a good bubble flare?

Anyway, it's the 3/16" tube with 10x1 nuts, and I seem to

remember 2 @ 20", 2@ 41" for the fronts, and maybe 1 @ 50" and

1@41 or 30 to the back, and then a pair of 20"ers from the rear tee.

But it's been a while...

ok, I will check realoem for the lengths.

Any input on the MC from the 7 series?

thanks for the input everyone.

Anything else I have to look forward to? any snags or things to look out for?

What about the single line conversion?
