Anyone know a good source for the steel braided lines for the calipers.  Am
going to do a total flush of the brake system and would be a good time to
replace the original lines.
Thanks,

... funny how short the memory can be sometimes ... frankly, I don't
remember this being a big deal when I did this during the engine swap.  Once
you pull out the heat shields there's a good bit of room to work in there
... I don't remember having a difficult time finding tools to get to the
nuts ... there's certainly no need to pull the headers!
