SS brakelines, what make is the favorite?
I know there are several vendors who sell SS lines and I tried to do a search for past info without much luck, so I hope this won't warrant any "beating a dead horse" replies.
Which brand would be best for a '06 C6 MN6 for track/street driving?
I have read of some models throwing codes as well as others being too short, so I would prefer some actual hands on experience if possible.
Also, would there be any advantage of switching to "AN" fittings?

Ones I got from DRM worked well for 5 years. Can't remember if the was an AN fittings. Wilwood lines are nice with the coating over the SS.

AN fittings are definitely a good thing. I do a fair amount of street driving though, so was concerned about dirt/grit chafing the inner teflon lines. That led me to the StopTech lines (bought from pfyc.com) - they have a coating to prevent any crap from getting between the stainless braid and the line.

There is only one place to go for this type of need. Classic Tube and Stopflex. See classictube.com. Give them a call and tell them I sent you. Outstanding service and knowledge.

That's why I bought the StopTech also. I've got a year of street/track/autocross on them with no problems.
