As you can imagine with rubber the hot fluid will really make it expand and thus have less pressure when you really need it.

BTW: those upgrading your lines might has well step up to DOT 4 fluid while you're at it. You've got to bleed the brakes anyway.
yes, been running stainless/teflon brake lines 20+ years ago ever since the days of buying bulk line and fittings from the local Earls dealer and making them myself.
