I decided to go all flexi hose for the brake lines. GOO did this and his Marlin supplied hoses were from HEL Performance in Devon.
I started by measuring up but it wasn't easy without knowing what radius the hose would bend to. I called HEL (Simon Lane) and he was amazingly obliging. He sent me, free of charge at that stage, a coil of the hose and loads of different end connectors. All I had to do was offer the hose up to the chassis, cut it to length and choose the end fittings. I sent the whole lot back to HEL and they swaged them and sent them back at a really reasonable price.
Just one other thing. I chose to put swivel fittings at both ends of each hose (except the bulkhead fittings). I could not see any disadvantages to this and it makes fitting/removal a doddle. John
