Hydraulic Clutch Slave Cylinder Swap Fitting

Calling all manual trans swappers.

Does anyone know if there are any companies that make a hydraulic fitting to convert the stock hydraulic lines for the clutch slave cylinder to (-4) AN?

I bought a popular fitting that came out in my search via Summit but the fitting does not fit. The stock fitting has more of a shaft and a bigger opening to run the roller pin fitting perpendicular to hold it in place. The summit fitting is shorter and the curvature is smaller. See pic.

I am trying to run my stock T5 on my LS swap and trying to keep as many items on the car stock. The stock fitting is a quick connect roller pin fitting that has to be converted to -4AN to run the hydraulic throw out bearing that fits the LS Clutch.

Car is a 305 V8 with T5.

Tick or Hawks might have a Tilton master cylinder upgrade for T5, and if they do then they would also have access to the correct fitting or hose. I'd call both of them.

I am developing an adapter with the help of some friends to take the stock quick connect roller pin connector from the clutch master cylinder to -4 AN fitting to adapt a hydraulic throw out bearing. DM me if you’re interested.
