Hi,
i have been going through the forums and a bunch of posts from different people so just wondering what the consensus is for adding the "curly Q's" to the brake lines. Is this just to use up the whole length brake line, some say it helps with bleeding (not sure on that one). To me and by no means am I an expert it would just make sense to cut and flare the line to the right length to eliminate any possible place where air can get trapped, more work granted but neater and I can't ever remember seeing brake lines curled like that on any car I have ever seen or driven, is this just a Cobra thing.
From my trolling of the forum, It seems as if people do it either way. and run the line in many different ways. for me i am going to use the X brace as i have a Breaze battery box on route so need to keep the line out of the way of that, the rear will just come across the tube above the diff and stay away from the e-brake cables etc.
