are you planning on running braided lines all the way thru? if so why? why not just make a new hardline?

i dont care what it costs i can buy it at cost from 3 different companys i deal with so my cost isnt going to be stupidly priced but if no one wants to help me by telling me what sizes i need thats fine.

no need to get iffy, he was only offering a cheaper alternative, how was he to know that you can get braided line at cost? anyway i think dash 8 is probably sufficient for that kind of power.
