Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
No problem at all Doug, but it would have been nice ;-)
Wish I could be there with you and meet all of you, but as always, money is in the way... I know you have a good time, I see the pics afterwards and have a laugh with you!! Merry Christmas!!

Doug...if you keep up this pace there won't be anything left to do at the Jan 19 wire/fire except give people joy rides in the burb..

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Me too, though I am not sure yet if they will work with a NPT thread. The seating area looks pretty close too. I have honestly never paid attention on banjo bolts. If anyone knows for sure please let us know.
I may need to get 16 more flex lines with a 90 degree end and a 3/8 npt. ![]() |

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Wilwood flex line kit includes a 3/8” NPT 90 degree for the caliper and a straight connection on the flex line. Found a pic of one installed.
Was trying to be clever and stay away from the 90 as I couldn’t be sure where it would be pointing when tightened.

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Yep...I just looked it up on wilwood and it shows the NPT 90 for the caliper..that's suprising...I woulda thought wilwood would use the best of the best...but if that's what they use then it must be ok...
Is that 3/8npt?...it shows to be 1/8npt...

And never having worked with Wilwood calipers before, the NPT is a new one on me. That is probably why they have this sticker over the port. So, I will get the 90’s and straight fitting on the end of the line. That will reduce the torquing stress on the caliper body and have a reduce chance of road debris impact damage. |

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
I'm like you..trying to clock a npt fitting could be tricky to get it in the right spot..and it be tight or not over torqued....

This is the look on my face working through the details on brake line connections...My personality is not detail oriented.

Getting ready for our January 19th “Wire and Fire” event, we set up a shop lounge area for breaks and bench racing. Thanks Brad for the sweet Chevy seats!

Nathan is continuing the wiring layout and mounted the accessory drive to determine alternator connection routing. And I finally decided to go this route for coil mounting.
