[pitbull419]

Im going to be putting a new engine in my car so while im waiting for some parts i want to upgrade my brake and fuel lines.
My question is what do you guys think is the best s.s brake line im looking at goodridge,techna fit or stop tech.
Does anybody know if any of this have a history oy being defectice or not fitting or anything i might need to know?
Also if you know were ican get them cheaper than: goodridge $119,techna fit $125 and stoptech $117
Thanks

Think basically there all pretty much the same, actually I wouldn't be surprised if they were all manufactured in the same spot. If I had a choice of lines, like you do with stock calipers I'd recommend the one MachV sells, believe their the techna fit? just simply based on the fact the have the rubber over coating to protect them from abraison, which can happen when dirt & other crap get stuck between the SS overbraid & the teflon inners.

Ya thats the one i really had my eye on because of that extra coating.
I know there pretty much the same i just didnt know if any of them had alot of complaints like fittings leaking or falling off or not fitting correctly.

No, SS breaklines don't usually seem to have issues with them failing. Lines from any reputable DSM vendor should work great for you

Techanfit is all we use on our street and race cars.

I would recommend the Mach V ones as well, becasue of the that rubber coating on the outside, just as Daren P said.

I have the Stoptech ss lines and they are awesome quality. They even come with new banjo bolt retainer clips which a lot of other kits don't come with. Every part in the kit is top notch. I'm very happy with it. $117 comes with front and rear lines which is a good deal imo. When I bought it, I thought it was only for the rear as my Baer's came with their own larger ss lines. So now I have an extra front set.

so the stop techs are 117 for the front and rear i thought that was only for the rear.
Thats a great deal.
