They don't list everything online, such as a 5/16s hose barb to -6an fitting. That part is win. You gotta call them to get the part number if you don't see it while browsing.

Summit.
I have purchased Summit brand, Earl's, Aeroquip, & Russell. They are all good quality and interchangeable. The Summit brand is usually the cheapest, but quality is still excellent.
I've purchased Mocal from Pegasus too, also very good.
I'd spend a few extra bucks on swivel fittings, so you can clock them any way you'd like.
Also, get the tools now. Summit wrenches are about ~$10/size. The aluminum vice blocks are about $20. I've built a bunch of lines and only recently bought the tools. Should have bought them right away.

You might try some place local. In town there is a hydraulic parts shop that I use for stuff like this. They service bull dozers and stuff like that but they build lines all day long at less than half the price of typical AN fittings. They also use their machines to crimp the connectors on the SS lines and the fittings are much stronger than the typical AN connectors. I bet most major cities have a similar shop.

I may look into that. I did kind of want to make the lines myself and have them be reusable and **** like that.
I will have to check it out though. It was pretty dam affordable.
