First, I must say that this a great way to meet my Chevelle Bro's...on a national level. I've owned three Chevelles during the last 23 years. In any case, I've managed to hold on to one during my career with the military. With all the bouncing around countries and changing duty stations, I've met some great people/owners of americas most famous muscle cars graemlins/beers.gif . Anyway, I've rebuilt my motor a couple of times, which probably puts it in the neighborhood of a 360 cid. I've just completed the "Be-Cool" system with the dual fan set-up. Rebuilt the front suspension with a complete "PST" Poly set-up. Swaped to Disc Brakes, and presently swapping the brake lines with "Earls" braided lines graemlins/thumbsup.gif . I found that on the passenger side, the bolt that connects the brake line to the caliper is a 7/16th wrench-head and the drivers side has an allen wrench-head (not cool)... I want to replace the allen wrench-head with another 7/16th wrench-head. Anybody been down that road before? I went to a brake shop, and they know exactly what I am going through. I went to a junk yard and they only went as far back as 1980. Boy... Imagine that :rolleyes: ! The brake shop also told me, the holes (one below the head of the bolt)have to line-up with the line or it will break the seal. Any place I can get this "Banjo Bolt"? Is that the right name for it?
Thanks

Chrysler mini-vans use a hex head banjo bolt the same diameter and length as the Chevy. Lot of them at the junk yard.

I recently did a brake conversion with braided brake lines on my 68. The bolts I got with the lines didn't fit the calipers I used.
I found the right bango bolts at the local chain parts store on the Help rack.

I also got the correct banjo bolts for my brake conversion (drum to disc) from the Help parts section of my auto parts store. Interestingly the correct banjo bolt was described on the package as for Chrysler cars, no mention of chev on the package. If you do a search on "banjo bolt" in this forum, I expect you will get a more exact parts description. I think I posted the exact part number some time back but I can't recall it now.
