[s-cars] BB Upgrade - SS brake lines

[Tom Green]

Manny,

My invoice is for part number HYD950.33006, SS Brake Line Kit.  It was  
shipped directly from Stop Tech 1805 S. Wilmington Ave, Compton Ca 90220
Tel 310 933 1100/1108.  I ordered through Racer's Edge Inc, 912  
Blackstone Drive, Knoxville, TN 37934, a Porsche shop, obviously  
because they are
local, which did not matter in the end since the lines were drop  
shipped, and I had already gotten the kit # from Stop Tech.   They  
quoted $57.60 at Stop
Tech and I was billed $77.13 at Racer's Edge (retail mark up, shipping  
and 9.25% sales tax).  The kit included the two nicely finished lines  
and the bolts
and washers for the banjo bolt end.

www.stoptech.com has a list of resellers.  It lists Curry's Auto  
Service for N. VA.   HTH.
