Cutting Brake Pipes?

I have some nice shiny new Wilwoods to put on my car and need to change the ends on my Goodridge stainless braided hoses....

What's the best way to cut the swaged end off the pipe and do I use the little copper olive on the inner or over the braid for the new one?

Ta peeps,
Steve

I think I'd be inclined to get them profesionally done. There's a place in Newton Aycliffe, Linden hoses could do it while you wait. Probably simillar places up your direction.

If you're using Euroquip 600 fittings, the olive goes between the teflon inner and the steel braid.
