Braided Steel Lines For '73 GT550?

[hailwood1965]

Hi All

I've been trying to source a complete set of new brakes lines for the front of my 1973 GT550.

Sort of have a hodgepodge of 1974-77 stuff put together. It's too long and I'd have to use the original master to mid-joint brake line--which is plugged solid. That's the one from the master on down.

I'm about ready to throw in the towel on the OEM lines and just get one single braided steel line from front master to the steel line that leads to the caliper.

Anyone ever done this and knows a supplier and a part number specifically for the 1973 GT550?

Hoping to finish this project up in the next month.

Again get an error when trying to upload a pic. Here is a link:

That's one of the early calipers that I had problems sourcing a new connector for, so I just fitted a later one that has the normal banjo end. I Just want to a local hydraulic hose place and they made on up as I wanted.
Braided hoses are much better and slightly improve braking as they don't swell when pressurised.
