Long story short, I have S197 front brakes for my 1965. Since it's made for a specific model it doesn't give me the fitting sizes for the braided hose.

Need to know the size of the AN fitting on the non caliper side, where it connects the to hard line. Need to buy adapter from 3/16 line to the braided AN fitting.

Thanks

Are you running the '65 - '67 factory dimension hardline that runs from the master cylinder to caliper? The original 65 hardline end has a male NPT fitting. Is the braided hose application for the S197 Caliper and does that female end of that braided hose an AN size like maybe a -4? There should be an adapter for sure (I use Fragola extensively for my older mustangs, my fox body and my S550) just need a little more info...

Everything is 100% custom. I figured it out. It is a AN, just cant remember it while writing this. My front kit was for a S197 direct replacement so I figured someone might know the fitting size. Just my front spindle is based on a 1966 with a shortened steering arm, 1970 big snout spindle and brake mounts for a S197.
