    Im currently in the process of installing f-body calipers on my car but just had a question. I have everything i need as far as doing the upgrade, minus new brake hoses. I have access to a lift tonite and would like to get them on asap since it'll be easier to do having the whole car lifted as opposed to one side at a time. I also have to change one of my rear calipers since the bleeder valve is broken. Anyways, i plan to get new brake hoses in the near future, but would i be able to get away with using the stock hoses for now?

    I was going to get stainless lines, i just know i gotta wait for shipping. the stock lines wont be on too long, but im just anxious to get the brakes on lol. i was looking on ebay and seen some SS brake lines, do u think these are any good? i usually order from ZZP, but never had a problem with anything i ordered off ebay.
