I need to flare and bend 3/16 in. stainless hard lines for direct port - any recommendations on tools and where to purchase them? I want decent quality for a good price (who doesn't?)

TIA

you should be able to use a brake line flare tool and brake line tubing bender. you can pick them up at your local autoparts store.

You can also buy pre-flared lines as well. I highly recommend this over doing it yourself since it is much less of a headache. I bought a flaring tool from Autozone but it didn't work- wouldn't hold the tubing. I then realized that Advance Auto sold pre-flared tubing and have been using it since (added ITR ABS and had to route new lines).
On an unrelated side note- no one should have any excuses for not doing the 1" MC upgrade since the proper tubing (inverted aka double flared) is readily available.

how huch is the preflared tubing - I already have the tubing though - but some of those tools were expensive so I guess either way.
