What Size Brake Lines

Im getting a new 12 bolt rearend for my 89 GTA in a month and am convertiing my rear brakes to the lt1 setup. I want to upgrade my brake lines to steel braided lines from Earls but Im not sure which size to get. Are the brake lines for the lt1 setup going to be the same length and size as the stock brakes so i can just order Earls kit for my car or do I need to buy a custom size and legnth??

I had this post in the brake board for lke 5 days and got no replies so thats why im posting here cuz i know a lot of people have upgraded to 12 bolts so someone should know
