Too bad our vacuum lines run all over the damn place and are different sizes on different ends so you have to use reducers. It's a pain, I need to put some thought into it though, there has to be a clean way to do it.

Unofficially, they are also lubed with virgin seal oil and the main springs are reinforced with locks from Shirley Temple

Hey Hector is the BBK new? Dose it come with pads? How are the rotors?

With many high end break pads they new a new surface to properly seat themselves. You may still have to pick up new pads and have the rotors surfaced.

If i were you I would go with the most squeeky set you can find!
