I have read that there is some confusion on the correct part numbers from Cardone and RockAuto. Can anyone confirm exactly what I need for an NA? Or just go to NAPA or Autozone?
Thanks, James

When I installed a set of SS brake lines on my coupe, then flushing & bleeding the entire system, the brake pedal in my Coupe was nice & firm, with only a small amount of travel. But after it sat for awhile, the "soft" brake pedal came back. This was right before the Fall ToD event last year. But the car performed fine up & back & throughout the weekend. I have a new Master Cylinder, but not convinced I need to install it yet. I guess I don't drive the XFire often enough to remember the soft pedal feel as being somewhat normal. That's my story & I'm sticking to it!!!
