Anyone running Earl's Braided Brake line kit???

I just bought this kit for my LT1. I plan on installing it soon and have a question for the guys who have installed this kit.

The kit only includes 6 crush washers(I think the factory manual calls them "gaskets") for the "banjo" fittings. I have not looked under the car yet, but don't I need 8 of them? Is this kit missing parts?

There are only three lines right? Two fronts and one rear. The rear lines to the calipers are hard lines with only one rubber line by the diff.

No, its a 5 line set. 2 in the front, 1 before the tee on the rear axle and one for each caliper.
There should be 2 washers for each banjo. If you are short, go to an auto parts store or dealer, they are cheap parts.
