oh, this is can of worms!
right, i think you find if you've got the wilwood kit, this should in theroy be the same as the O E fitting wise, which i believe to be 3/8 unf, though i'm probably be wrong, all the brake lines should be in -3, with the fittings being ford fit, best to look here at Burton for this...
https://www.burtonpower.com/product_...rke%20fittings
if its MFI
the fuel lines, -6 from the tank, and return to accumulator, from here -6 or -8 to filter, fittings can be brought again from burton, -6 out of filter to metering head.
the fuel thread is here:
https://passionford.com/forum/ford-e...uel-pipes.html
i think the filter thread is m10 X 1 or 1.25, again i may be wrong,
into the metering, i'm unsure, though i've got a feeling its m10 X 1,
now out of the metering head, the banjos i don't know, i'm ringing burton tomoz, as i've got a feeling it could be m8.
the mfi injectors, fitting are deffo -4,
on EFI, you can run entire fuel with -6
i've posted a similar thread here, found out a bit, but not much really.
the question i would like answered is, if i use -4 from the injetors back to the metering head will it cause problems, as the OE fuel lines are about 1mm
with -4 inside diameter of 4.7mm will this cause a drop in fuel pressure?
hope this helps

yes that hellped allot actually!
GOODRIDGE -3 BRAKE HOSE FITTING: FEMALE STRAIGHT, 3/8UNF x4 (one for every goodridge that come from the calipers)
GOODRIDGE -3 BRAKE HOSE FITTING: STRAIGHT MALE,CONVEX SEAT, 3/8UNF x2 (for the willwood adj)
is the size on the master cylinder 3/8 UNF?
also need some 3-way splitters
and answer on your quesion, yes injectors is fixed flow.
so they would not overfuel suddenly

hi again Alex, to be honest if your going with a pedal box, like in another thread, you can get the cylinders with the correct thread size.
the OE cylinder i'm pretty sure is 3/8th as well.
