3/8" tubing for brake lines would be mega big. 3/16" is standard size unless you are running say 40+' ... then 1/4". Several of us are using the copper/nickel lines ... street rod rebuilders are using it more and more because it's easy to work with, durable, and won't corrode. Insulated clips are easy to find for it as well. A roll big enough for your job is only @ $70. Yes it's rated for the 1600 psi Hydrastar. I don't know if you've ever tried to double flare 3/8" stainless line, but lets just say get ready for an experience. Most hand flares like you'd rent at an auto parts store won't get the job done.
