Joe, I have Matco brakes and master cylinders. I use 1/8" plastic line that I got from Matco, for the entire installation. My plane is fast and I have to brake hard often. This is a replacement installation, so I got lucky. The old installation used 1/4" line, and I was able to feed the new line all the way from the Master to the Slave. This can come in real handy if the line ever needs to be replaced. So, this is a hint to install the 1/4" line first as a conduit for the 1/8" line, if you decide that is the route you want to take.
Another interesting thing is that with the old type installation, which I had on this KR and my first KR, I could not hold the plane during run-up. Now that is not a problem. I think the 1/8" line does not expand like the 1/4" did. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics See you at the 2012 - KR Gathering in Mt.
