doesnt exsist, been there, dont that
these guys have some crazy fittings and bubble flare unions that can help, you have no idea how long it took to actually find these parts and this site!

either way, you are still going to have to make a line with inverted flare on one side for the feed to the prop, and something to get tot he body line. I used a 14mm union from those guys, then took a 14mm nut, drilled and tapped it to 1/8 NPT, stuck a little piece of line with a bubble flare into it, screwed a close nipple into the new threaded side then to the prop. worked great, and i didnt have to modify the body lines.

Just did a story on this -- the union in this story came from the NAPA parts counter. I was surprised how many oddball fittings they had.
Cars that were built with metric fittings before ABS became common are in a weird place, and it's a bitch to find the proper fittings to put a prop valve in them or flare the lines for that matter.
