FYI, NAPA (at least here in Mass) is quoting 25' 3/16" CU-Nickel at $47 rather than $25 as of today. It's still short money though.
I'm definitely going to go with Copper-Nickel too. I had erroneously thought it was illegal which Yorker cleared up.
How does one settle on diameter of the pipe? I noted the FedHill site has a variety of choices. Is it as simple as whatever fits snug through the fittings or is it determined by type of flare used...or both?
[Edit: As I start to do some research on this...given it's brakes afterall...I realize it isn't so casual a process. The FedHill site has a FAQ that is pretty good for someone who hasn't done brakes in the past...e.g., me]1970 88 IIAComment

Replace the lot!
I just did the whole steel line replacement on my daughters 63 88. I got an Automec kit for single line LHD from a Rovah parts supplier in Maine. It is the cunifer lines and should never have to be replaced in her lifetime!
I recommend that you replace one line at a time. I found it easier to take off the Rh wing to gain access to the 3way union on the frame. The orginal metal clips on the frame may not bend back into place tightly. Plan on 2 days but could be done if all things go smooth in 1.
