Hi Josh,
The OEM "rubber" brake lines from the Sierra will be too short, I'm 99% sure of that.

Almost everybody fits "racing" flexi brake lines which are made from stainless steel braided Teflon hose. They look much nicer on the Roadster than the OEM ones. They are thinner and lighter. They are also much more resistant to pressure thanks to the stainless steel braid, and don't swell under heavy braking as the OEM "rubber" ones have tendency to do. So definitely recommended for sport/fast road driving.

I supply these kind of brake lines, please check my website (address in my signature) if you are interested and send me PM if you need more info or to order.

My brake lines come with 100% stainless steel fittings, and ss lock nuts for the bulkhead fittings. They are fabricated on order, so 100% custom. 26 colours of PVC cover on the hose are available, so you can make them match perfectly with the colour of your car, but you can also choose to keep the natural colour of the stainless steel braid (clear PVC cover), that is the choice I've made.



I've already supplied a big dozen of kit car builders, most of them being Haynes roadster builders from this forum, and they looked quite happy with the product

If I can be of any help, do not hesitate to contact me.

Cheers.
