2) The stock steel lines lasted probably 20 years or more and new stock steel lines will probably outlast you. Still, stainless steel ones will only need to be done once. If the car is to be judged in NCRS or Bloomington Gold, stainless steel will take a deduction.
3) I would use a stock style exhaust. The further a muffler is from the manifolds, the more horsepower you make. Also, having mufflers under your seat cuts your ground clearance and increases the heat in the passenger area.Going to a local muffler shop is not a bad idea, as most can custom bend and fit one in as cheaply or cheaper than many premade, plus they will fit it so it doesn't hit, leak, and flop around. Many premade systems have to be fitted completely because as strange as it sounds, they can't make them to actually fit the car. However, Midas is about as expensive as they get. If you have a Meinicke, they are much cheaper and frequently there are private, non-chain shops that can do even better.
