Buy them direct from Porterfield.  http://porterfield-brakes.com/

Make up your own brake lines - it's easy. Pegasus Racing will
sell you all the bits, and their catalog has detailed instructions.
Please do follow them exactly. I have some comments about plumbing
this stuff at http://bosphorus.dimebank.com/tech/BrakePlumbing.html - see
the comments near the ends about Girling flares and AN hardware.

When you mount them on your car, cover them with the spiral wire
wrap to protect them and the things around them - stainless mesh
is *very* abrasive. If you don't know about this stuff, here's

Useful in lots of places around a race car.
