    Polished copper nickel brake line

    There's nothing wrong with Nickel/Copper brake lines in terms of safety. Some companies are using them OE on cars now. However, if you do go to ebay and buy some cheap **** super thin-wall line then you are taking a gamble on safety. There's several good quality brands to choose from for...

    about to pull the trigger on a scarebird kit

    Those look like standard '73+ sliding calipers which were used on both the 10 7/8" disc and 11 3/4" disc (don't quote me on those 2 exact sizes, I might be a little off). So the kit you linked just uses standard '73+ LBP disc brake parts, but gives you a SBP rotor. That's a great idea imo if you...

    Painted brake lines ?

    Paint them before installing, much easier. Touch up after if necessary. Even better use silicone break fluid (DOT 5) so you don't have to worry about brake fluid ruining your paint ever again!

    Scarebird caliper install

    If you buy some Nickel/Copper brake line it's very easy to do. You can easily double-flare that stuff with a cheap tool. You don't need to bend all new lines, just get brass flared-end to flared-end connectors and connect to your existing lines.

    proportioning valve placement

    I have mine mounted just below/next to the master cylinder on the driver's side fender. It's flex mounted against a piece of plastic for any minimal body flex that might occur. The factory spot down on the frame rail will cause it to absorb a lot of heat from exhaust systems, especially with...
