[s-cars] Brake lines

[Joseph Pizzimenti]

Well, excuse me, professor.  I failed to mention that
MY experience was that the stainless lines SUPPLIED TO
ME BY ECS CRACKED.  I did not measure them.  I put
them on the car.  My car is lowered.  It broke.  I
also failed to mention that this was (Dear God!) MY
experience!  Also, YMMV.
