[Spridgets] hydraulic lines and fuel line?

[Ewing]

CuNi lines are the current best option for DIY'ers.  The line is easily bent and has good corrosion resistance.  See FedHill for info:

No they don't give me money and there stuff is expensive but they do have the right fittings and a great flare tool.

The main all lines came with the proper fittings (Bugeye has different fittings).  Main line came coiled but the metal is easy to work.

Mo$$ shows a brake set available in copper-nickel alloy. Are there other options?  What about fuel line and clutch line?  Might as well do this right while I'm at it.
