Braided Steel Brake Hoses

I just finished cleaning, prepping, painting all the parts for my LS1 brake conversion and it is ready to go on the car. The only part I am concerned about is the brake hoses. When I bought the conversion it did not come with the LS1 hoses so I was just planning on using the LT1 hoses and bending the bracket. I was alittle iffy about that though, I don't want to half *** something as important as brakes. So I want to go with braided sttel hoses. I've been looking around but haven't found anything really, will brake lines from a 84-92 Vette fit? I know Thunder Racing sells them, but is there any place where I can buy just the fronts? Need some advice

Edit: I found this and was wondering if any applications would fit other than the Camaro ones? Mind you, I would like to just buy the front 2

Re: Braided Steel Brake Hoses

Just buy the replacements for the LS1 hoses in Braided SS. Check with Summit or similiar parts outlets. Nothing special about the stock rubber hoses for your application.

I checked Summit and can't find replacements in Braided SS. Will any other applications work?

Re: Braided Steel Brake Hoses

Here's Earl's SS lines for LS1 at Thunder:
http://www.thunderracing.com/catalog...p&vid=3&pcid=2
wasn't hard to find either?..
I have LT1 Earl's and they are a nice set and work fine..
Here's the LT1 set: http://www.thunderracing.com/catalog...p&vid=4&pcid=2
And they have a 'front only' for LT1's that can be made to work for the LS1 conversion..
but its only $30 more for all 4 wheels?
I don't think they make a set front only for LS1
