Default 66 brake lines

I have a 66 I6 that I am upgrading to power brakes and was wondering if I need to upgrade my brake lines or will the old metal lines and such work with the new power booster. Thanks!

The ones you have will work, provided they are in good shape. You may have to rebend, reflair, or extend the lines to the master cylinder and p-valve, but that is not hard to do.

They will work, but if you have the $$$ now's the time to upgrade to stainless steel lines.

Thanks for the replies. I guess as with everything else, we'll see how the budget stands up and if I can afford it upgrade them. Otherwise good to know I can still use them.
