Looked at my OEM lines to asses cleaning.

They look like crap, and will suck to clean for my 73 Sat DOT 5 conversion.

I'm aware of Inline Tube, Fine Lines and Right Stuff.

Is one better than another?

Has anyone had issues going with stainless?

I got Right Stuff SS trans lines, and while no problems, they were not bent as per OEM.
Probably saved install headaches but hang a bit lower. Not a big deal, but like to be aware.

On the pass front brake line I had to bend it some to remove it. I'm guessing SS will not be as easy.
 
I was disappointed with InLine tube on my 73, brake lines wouldn't seal at the fittings, had local company make my lines and was great no issues.
 
I live about 10 minutes from Inline. I have them bend up all my custom lines[fuel/brake, etc] in stainless, and have never had a problem. However.... they are proud of their stuff, and wouldn't discount to their mother.
They use their own stainless lines, and I've never had a leak.
 
I had trouble with inline. Right stuff worked great.
Both company's vend at Carlisle.
 
I just replaced the rear brake lines on my 2002 F 150, got them from In-Line. Worked great.
 
YAH! BUT THAT'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT DEAL. NOT AN OLD B-BODY
 
Full brake lines and fuel line, all pre-bent from right stuff. No issues at all. I expected to do a little tweaking, and that's all I had to do.
