    Which fitting for girling cylinder (bias pedal box)?

    hi,

    I am in the process of fitting a bias pedal box to my Escort mk2. All is going well, but I am looking for the right hose fitting (connector) for the Girling cylinder outlet (3/8 UNF) to flexible hose.

    I would like to run flexible braided brake hoses from the two Girling brake cylinders to the bulkhead. From the bulkhead I will be using copper brake lines to the calipers.

    Which connector / union should I use at the cylinder outlet?

    I have ordered this one: https://www.burtonpower.com/3-straig...unf-bfu10.html
    but in my opinion it is too short.

    Should I simply order this one: https://www.burtonpower.com/3-straig...unf-bfu12.html

    Or do I need something else

    for illustration;

    The picture below shows the flexible hose I would like to realize.

    I've used Banjo fittings at the outlets.
    Why go from braided hose to copper?
