Putting my new braided brake lines on the front . Can I rotate the banjo fittings on the line? Otherwise I think my line is going to be twisted a bit.

pumps,
Yes, you can rotate the ends to line up with either the master cylinder or the caliper.
Here is a video for the Speigler SS brake lines:

pumps,
Too bad we don't have editing. I could have put all this into one post.
The ends of the SS line are aluminum, so you have to use aluminum washers with the banjo bolts.
