2) About as good as stock.
3) dunno... couple bucks I'd imagine.
It should be noted that they retain the use of banjo bolts (since they are pretty much just stock replacements), which tend not to flow all that well.

If you are looking for stock replacements, get these. If you are looking for serious performance lines, get the -AN lines which require the use of adapters. Banjo bolts flow terribly and offer significant restrictiopns to oil flow and pressure drop (which should only be an issue in VERY heavily modded engines... IE: oil loop lines, 3 window bearings, higher-rate OPR, High-volume oil pump, modded oil passages, etc).

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
Somebody installed teflon lines instead of the plastic of ss ones and last time I checked hasn't had a single problem with them. And they didn't really cost him much. Do a search.

I've run with the stainless ones for about 3 years now. No problems whatsoever. Well worth the cost, fit right in...The aluminum AN fittings like to seep oil a little, though. No big deal, just a stain, not a leak...

Rifled? For more flow? That makes no sense.
