My only issue Kunifer is it tends to harden when you bend it, so its less forgiving if you want to change the form, one bend great....but whoops, need to change it and its gone stiff..... or at least that's the experience I had when I did a Fuego fuel pipe in it twenty plus years ago.
I've used copper ever since, but am starting to be concerned how flimsy it seems lately.
Access as ever is also an issue on the GTA without a lift you're not going to have a ball, as one rear goes over the 'box and the fronts start under the tank, with one passing from the O/S to the N/S behind the rad, not an issue if you're stripped out for other work but as a stand alone task......not a mornings work on the drive with plenty of tea/fag breaks.
Defo go with some braided goodridges, far better feel, cheap as chips for a set, makes the job a bit less stressful.
If you're concerned about the long central runs, as it's usually where they clip in that they are worse, I've used joins before, just replace the nasty section and put a join in somewhere out of the way, there's not detriment to performance so why piddle your pants over it? If ever the car has more major surgery, by all means go full end to end when access is better.
Good Luck!
