- all the M's are here!! 
That's exactly what I had in mind. The remnants of the old crimping has the ends of the tubing looking terrible. I'll post a pic later. I figure I'll either cut the worst bit off or squeeze a tube in there and braze it tight.

copper is a neat look - I ran copper lines for oil on my bike
Maybe chrome? Most of the visible plumbing done in showers and toilets is chromed copper tubing.
Headed out to the Shop to work on the Mitch Mobile !!

Need some flex in there. Copper all the way will probably crack from engine movement
When I rebuilt the transmission for my D250 Cummins, the trans cooling lines were rusted to the point of breakage. And they are 1/2 od !!!. Not available from the dealer anymore. So I bought a coil of 1/2 copper and flared and bent them into position myself. No leaks yet in a year and a half. In my case, they travel pretty far from the radiator before they are clamped tight to the trans.

true enough - some braided lines and solid motor mounts will resolve that..

**** - RRR's (Rob) wife Kitty had a stroke - there is a thread if you haven't seen it Please pray for Kitty.
Yup, saw that. I'm going myself for what they call a Lifeline Screening next month, where they check the carotid artery, and circulation , and blockages.
I eat a lot of (not so good for ya) food !!

not much scares me - this stuff sure enough does... I may have to check into that
Yeah, It's not even at the my doctors office. I did it a few years ago. I usually get something in the mail every other year. It's group of medical professionals that provide the service, and they travel around. Usually to a local church or civic center of some kind. Cost is around 140. They are coming to a Church very near me in June. Worth it I think. Since I eat bad and smoke cigars (no inhale tho)

Coiled is 'soft' copper. It will flex, but not really intend for repeat movement. also, trans lines are closer to the mounts, so less movement. Still might be ok. I'd suggest leaving a loop in it, but he's trying to minimize...
This was my breakfast this morning, yes, at my age and most here it is time to think about it and eat better. This no cook day for me, I could not make myself eat eggs again this morning .... I miss my bread but it has taken a full size off mt pants, my doc was right about bread
