You won't buy a complete kit like that IMO. Will have to be built 'live' on the car.

I wouldn't say that assembling TFE pipe/fittings is easy and with so much at stake, its a task not to be taken lightly. You only need one poorly seated olive and you'll end up with a burst hose. Doesn't bear thinking about.
