best fitting brake line kits?

I've had it with this disc conversion...30 year old bolts and fittings are killing me. I've decided to go for one of the brake line kits...I just need input on where to look.

Any help is needed--this "quick brake job" has taken long enough.
P.S. Is a kit for a 71-72 what I need for a disc swapped '70?

I feel your pain. Took months to finish mine. Call Inline Tube, tell them what you are doing. They are very helpful. I used the complete stainless kit and it fit fine.

I also used a kit from Inlinetube.com and it fit nice and looks sweet. You can get optional stainless steel fittings on the lines for around $30 more(worth it IMO). They also offer braided stainless flex lines to replace the rubber lines. They did make a difference on my truck. I think it was $110 for all 3 lines. Total shipped to my door was around $330 for lines w/ stainless fittings and stainless flex hoses. Took a long afternoon to install everything and bleed system(put on new calipers, wheel cylinders & master cylinder too).

And yes, you will want a 71/2 kit.
