I've heard that stainless is tought to seal - hoping I have somewhat of an easier time in the future - fun...
As far as InLine Tube is concerned - I think they make great stainless steel e-brake cables, but thumbs down on the brake lines for my SC. I documented it on my project blog here. I ended up going to Fine Line and buying their versions of my rear axle lines and they fit great. It may depend on the model and year of car and how good of a copy set they had to work from, but I also had trouble with them sending me the right parts to begin with. They had to remake and resend one tube twice! and it still never fit!

X2! I've used it for a number of years and most repair shops around here have been using it for a long time. That's how I found out about it. A bit more expensive but it's easy to work with and won't rust out again. |

I definitely second the recommendation for using NiCopp - the stuff is more expensive but incredibly easy to work with and won't rust . Try it, you'll never go back.
