Thanks all for the discussion and comments. I’m using the nickel copper line so it’s pretty flexible. I did pickup one of those brake flaring tools as pictured by Grant. I also picked up the straightening tool Eastwood sells. I have to say that it does a great job of taking the coiled line and making it very straight. The tool pictured, although pricey, to me it was worth it. It is very easy to use and does great flares with little effort.

As for my fuel line, I’m going to try and do a single piece for going to the back. I feel that the nickel copper line will be flexible enough to get it all in place.
