front brake lines

so i read another thread on here about how the rubber breaks down, and deterriorates, i think that's how it's spelled, and causes the car to pull.. i read something about braided lines.. where can these be found, and about how much do they run? i went to the parts store, and they don't carry them..

I got the Rusel lines...
When I left my camaro 3yr ago the break lines were in good shape. After sitting for 3 years they were falling apart where they flex at the body.
I replaced them with Summit part number RUS-692050, $71.88 about 2 weeks ago.
Were they worth it???
I say yes.
There much better then the old lines.

stainless braided lines

Question. Do we buy the 82 -92 brake lines either earls or russels sells or do we need newer fbody lines for the ls1 front brake upgrade? and are they longer than stock? I heard the stock ones barely "make the cut".
