About to plumb my brake & clutch lines. I would rather run all stainless steel braided lines but some people are telling me to run as much regular steel line as possible then use stainless steel braided only where needed. I understand the theory of hydrodynamic expansion, but is it really gonna make that much difference ??? Here's a list of what I'm running in case it helps. Any advice is much appreciated !!!

Brakes - Wilwood single resevior master cyl, 1" bore
Jamar turning brake
Chevy S10 4x4 calipers (rear brakes only)

Clutch - Wilwood resevior, 3/4" bore
CNC slave cyl
Kennedy stage two clutch

I think your ok with braided hose. your's would'nt be the first i've seen done that way and they were ok with it.

It's fine, but it's generally cheaper just to run solid up to where you actually need to meet with the flexies, and it does give a tiny bit better pedal in terms of feel, but I doubt you'd notice it without a top notch brake system throughout.

Thanks, Fellas,,, I'm probably gonna go ahead and go the braided route. Alittle more expensive but it should be a much neater install.
