I know for hard line to calipers are street legal and dot approved but what about the full system all flexible stainless steel hose? Any benefit over a hard line? Thinking of doing a full kit on my street strip 67 dart.

Nope. Hose should be kept to the minimum required. Hose actually swells a bit when pressurized. An entire system dome with hose would result in a mushy pedal. Also, the plumbing should be done in 3/16" tubing and -3 hardware and hose IMO.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Okay cool thank you for the info, will just order up some tubing and just bend the system. With braided hose all the way you WILL have a spongey pedal.. thats fact.. run as much steel line as possible EDIT I use 3/16 steel on my junk

If this is a race type car with big rear tires and skinny fronts I would pull the prop valve off.. being that prop valve was set up for equal size tires all the way around and for the weight bias of a stock car.. a adjustable prop might be needed
