Default replacing brake hardlines

hey guys, newbie here, I lurk alot and dont post much, but I searched already and couldn't find what I was looking for or find it within the 700 or so posts that came up. So here goes; I want to replace my brake hardlines in the engine bay to ss braided. What connector do I use from line to flare? and what size line would be ideal?
I know its controversial, but I just want to finish my da up and this is the route I would like to go. I already removed the abs, and got the 40/40 prop valve.
I thought this was in the Pandahatch thread, but for some reason I did't see it.
thanks for your help.

Why do you want to replace your non-flexible brake lines to line that will possibly flex more than stock and reduce braking performance?

Use -3AN line, 10mm hydro adaptors and fittings as needed, and 45, 90, 180, etc degree AN fittings as you need them. I made a custom SS clutch line from Summit and it has worked perfect so far...
