Rear camaro caliper plumbing

So I'm need to hook up brake lines to the rear camaro calipers. Shouldn't be too hard, but I need a little info. What size of banjo bolt fitting does the caliper use? Also what size is the stock rear brake line, 1/4"?

I searched and search and couldn't find this. I was also surprised there wasn't an FAQ for the camaro caliper install.

Re: Rear camaro caliper plumbing

Are you using 93-97 Camaro calipers? If so, I will measure when I get to the shop in the morning.

It's 1/4 line. The banjo bolt is metric. I got mine at the dealership. I may have a couple extra, but will have to check next week.

I figured it was metric. Looking at summit, about the only metric size is 10mm.
