Re: hard steel brake line as feed line

whats wrong with people making there own oil lines ::)

bending hardline isint ---- if he gets a bender it will take him just about as long to use it as installing a stainless kit. its not rocket science. The kids probebly worryed and intimdated because he sees everyone running 85 dollar stainless braided line kits and thinks maybe running a hardline isint a good idea since he sees all of these oil line kits on all the setups. think that could be a possibility?
