I had these made a couple years back, as you can see one of the lines is bent wrong -
It doesn't look good, but is there any reason why it wouldn't work? As far as looks go, I don't think anyone will see it unless they're looking for it. It's mostly hidden behind the master cylinder -
I plan to switch to discs when I can afford the ones I want, after the car is running again. I don't know if these lines are different for a disc system or not. I see that the disc distribution block has a proportioning valve on the side, but otherwise appears to be the same as the drum distribution block. So the master cylinder to distribution block lines could be the same. It's going to cost me $40 to get the incorrectly bent line replaced, which would be a waste if it's functional as-is, and I'm going to replace it when switching to discs anyway. But if these lines are kept when switching to discs, than I'll fork out the $ to get a new line bent right.
