Anyone know the flare degrees for 66 2wd?
Today I discovered a leak in my brake line that goes from the MC to the splitter. I still have the stock brakes on it with the single MC. The guy at Autozone told me to bring in the line and they will be able to match it up but I doubt it. It would help if I had the specs before I start this wild goose chase.

Inverted flare fittings are 45 degrees.

Thaanx a million sir. The brakes feel good but when the fluid squirts out onto the headers I guess it's time to change the line.

What the auto p[arts stores have is various lengths of of steel line with male fittings with double flares on both ends. Measure your old line for the approximate length you need and you'll have to form the new line to shape. You might get lucky and not need to shorten the new line but if you do you'll need to re-flare the cut end. Don't forget to put the fitting on the line before you flare it or you'll have to cut your new flare off and do it again. The line you need is probably 3/16th".
