I am in the final stages of my 1LE upgrade.I have encountered a big problem - as I was installing the proportioning valve and master cylinder I found that my 82 Z 28 has
inverted flare brake lines, and the new master cylinder and proportioning valve have ISO metric fittings. Are there some type of adaptors available or do I need to change ALL the brake lines?
So near the end of this upgrade, yet so far away! DAMN

you can hack off the ends and buy a flaring tool. Get the fittings you need, and re-flare the brake lines.

 

Larry,I have a flaring tool.But I am unable to locate 3 of the 5 fittings. One of them appears to be 14mm 1.50. I will have to just keep looking I guess. Thanx,ANDYZ28

 

When I ordered my porportioning valve for my 1LE brakes, the dealer had a couple different 1LE porportioning valves for different sized fittings. You might want to check with them.
