If you use a corvette or camaro brake line you will need to use an inverted to bubble flare fitting for the hard line. I bought them from summit since I may use the corvette lines. The banjo side you need the bolt for the caliper being used. Kore-3.com can make the braided lines for your application and it's priced at what you would pay anywhere.

The gbody hose may be a tight fit because the line may not be long enough because of where the banjo bolts on the ls caliper.
