According to the ebay listing in your link
Quote:
Master cylinder outlets are 1/2-20 UNF and come with adapter fitting for 3/8-24 and 9/16-20.
So it looks like you have a couple choices.

(1) The cleanest looking would be to purchase some 1/2-20 brake line nuts that have a 3/16" center hole. Put those nuts on the ends of your 3/16" hard lines, double flare the ends, and screw them directly into the master cylinder.

(2) If you are using pre-flared sections of 3/16" hard line, they'll most likely have 3/8-24 nuts pre-installed. In that case, you could use the 3/8-24 adapter fittings that are supplied with the master cylinder.
