I went to O'Reilly's auto parts today at lunch. They pointed out that the two outlets from my master cylinder were different sizes (7/16” and ½”), and that my brake lines with a Japanese 3/16” thread fitting were not the same as 3/16” U.S. thread fittings. Neither O'Reilly or NAPA had a 1/2" to 3/16" reducer, but O'Reilly had 1/2" to 1/4" and 7/16" to 3/16" reducers. So, I wound up with two sizes of brake lines, 1/4" and 3/16".

The 3/16" line goes to a flaired 3/16" tee for the front brakes. The 1/4" line goes to a 1/4" flaired coupling on a tee. The other slots on the tee take the brakelight switch and the 3/16" line from the rear brakes.

Here is the assembly. The lines need to be bent in creative loops, but I believe that it will fly. I will install it when my car comes back from the paint shop (Maybe in a couple of weeks?). This should have been done before painting the car, but ......
