Ah s hit. Got my tubes mixed up.

this is all nitpickiness but i so agree and i'd like it that way too.
I doubt there's any noticeable difference between using Al and SS pipes. Personally, I'd take Al for upper and lower for the weight savings. Our cars can use the reduced weight from the front whereever it can to help with weight distribution.
