</font><font color="blue" class="small">( Copper work hardens and becomes brittle, too. You're probably better with a steel line or maybe the newer braided steel-reinforced rubber lines with steel ends )</font>

I like steel as well. Most of my antiques use steel lines.. though have at least one with a copepr line. Still like that better than plastic.

Not really an option on many of the antiques.. or at least not an economical option. Besides.. i like a real mechanical gauge.. gives me a better idea of how the engine is doing...

thanks everyone for your responses. I figured it was probabbly alright. the steel line thing sounds like a good idea. I will have to make it a project when i have 5 minutes to spare.

thanks again.
