The reason auto makers don't use stainless, (although some do), is the age old excuse...... COST...!

China will sell you lots of 304/316/and 400 for dirt cheap. Volvo has been using Cu/Ni since 1976 and their safety record speaks for itself.
Opinions are like assholes......there's lots in this world...the moment people start paying or contributing financially to my cars......then we can talk...............
In the mean time I'd rather not use steel lines.......period......end of discussion.
Back to reality of my 6 day work week of 73 hours....
Tomorrow I'm going to drag it down to Kitchener and stuff it in my friends bosses barn.

I want to thank you Nick. The prior discussions around here put the copper/nickel on my radar for the first time. You have been one of the advocates every time. I don't know when that stuff hit the market, but it wasn't around a couple decades ago when I made lines constantly. Heck in FL I would get jobs just because nobody else in the shop was willing or capable. By my research, I can find no negative information... and the positives are all mentioned here. Again thanks.
Does your car "yard drive" now that you have so many systems restored? I couldn't recall if you had done the fuel system yet and at 95 pages... I'm too lazy to go find out.

Well Nick, you have grown older and wiser. Four years ago you spent the winter in a tent freezing your *** off.
So.....I worked out a trade deal for an A body 8.75 rear diff for a car.....
That's a pretty cool deal, gonna fix it or part it?
