Question There has to be a better way!

than typical steel brake lines with brass fittings! I am replacing front calipers and rotors with Wilwoods, and I am tired of not being able to losen fittings without rounding the hex! I just cut all my fittings clean! Enough is enough.
Has anybody solved this hastle? Will Aeroquip type lines be an improvement? I am talking of not only from caliper to union but possibly from caliper to a T, (front only). One left and one right, to a single T fitting then using this same braided steel, (Aeroquip or similar) to proportion valve, then even (possibly) to Master Cylinder.
I seem to recall that steel braided lines should not replace solid steel for main brake lines as they exibit to much flex. But there has to be a better way. What has everybody else used?
