With the engine cold, jack up the front and see how much effort it takes to spin the front wheels by hand.
It sounds like the front calipers may be sticking. Either something in the piston bore of the caliper or something in the lines from the ABS to the calipers might be keeping the brakes from fully releasing. As the brakes heat up from driving, something may be expanding or keeping the fluid pressure from releasing.
The SS flex lines by themselves should not have caused any problems, but it's possible that some dirt may have gotten into the caliper at the fitting during the install.
The temp you see at the time the brakes lock is possibly nothing more than circumstance. The engine may be working harder to move the car if the wheels do not spin freely. Given the 15 minutes or so for the brakes to get hot enough to keep the car from moving, the coolant temp becomes high because of the added strain on the motor. BTW, 209 degrees is not a lot of temp for C4's
Heat radiating from the engine should not affect the hard brake lines. Extreme braking force can heat the brake fluid to where it actually boils but this causes a reduction in breaking performance and the portion of the fluid that boils is in the calipers themselves.
If you did add DOT5 Silicone fluid, you should remove it immediately, The DOT5 fluid does not work with ABS systems. This type of fluid will get air bubbles in it from the operation of the pump and cause cavitation, resulting in loss of braking effort and ABS problems. For street use, use a good quality DOT3 or DOT4 fluid. There is a DOT 5.1 fluid that is a synthetic fluid and will work in ABS systems.
