Default brake and fuel lines??

alright since i did or am doing the granada disc swap on the front with a manual booster (already have everything) what brake line kit do i need to get from the rear to the front and such from mustangs plus. theres like 2 different but all i see is "disc and drum" do i need the one that says DISC or not? i thought it meant 4 wheel disc, i don't wanna get the wrong one. :|

also for fuel line, which do i need to go from the tank all the way to the carb? any help is appreciated. since i don';t wanna spend money on the wrong parts !

I did the same set up last spring, instead of spending the dough on prebent, i picked up new straight lines and bent them my self, the fittings where a pain in the rear to find but a good clutch shop will helpas well asflair the lines that you cut.
Good luck

+1 on the DIY brake and fuel lines. You can get a tube bender from Harbor freight for about $12.00, and you can get an inverted flare flaring kit for about $40.00.

With a little thought, you can bend your own lines that look better than stock, and of course you are not exclussivly tied into the factory routing of the lines.

It can be a PITA to get those flares just right at first, but by religiously following the directions on the flare kit and a little practice you can make some fine looking (and working) flares.
