Adapters to convert bubble to double flare?

Hey TGO,

I didn't do homework well enough before spending $$$ again. I bought a complete stainless line kit from inline tube (it looks/fits great btw) and had some custom braided hoses made up from BBU a while back to make sure I could run the new LS1 brakes I have. I also have the master and booster from the LS1 to swap over to as well.

The prop valve I have is double flared, I upgraded to disk brakes ages ago and swapped the stock valve out for this one. I flared all the lines to work with it back in the day.

Now the part where I didn't pay enough attention. Turns out flaring stainless is about as painful as it gets. I don't want to mar up my nice new lines. So does anyone have any leads on where to find brass adapters to convert between the two? They must exist!

Re: Adapters to convert bubble to double flare?

Thanks Twin, I've been all over that site looking for the right ones, that's SAE to SAE with both ends still bubble from what it looks like. I've stared at so many of these.

Do you or anyone know what size the standard metric lines are? Is it 10mmx1.0 male Bubble flaring?
