Main British Car:

OK,I dropped my 5.0 liter ford into my 1980 MGB. It just seems like a righteous way to celebrate Independence day. The one thing I cant figure out is what fitting I need to mount my 4AN braided hose to the clutch hydraulic master cylinder. it needs a male flare fitting of some sort to attach to the clutch master cylinder.

I'm sure this has been done many times and I'm hoping someone can tell me what fitting to order.

Keith, Stock master, Wilwood, Tilton or GM. Could be Bubble flare (stock) or pipe thread or American style 3/8 x24 DIF.

Try speedway motors. I used an AN4 x 7/16 fitting but i can't recall if it was 20 or24 threads. The fitting has an inverted flare end but also works on the MG banjo fitting with a copper washer.
