Is this for the hydrolic clutch line for the 60-62? with the dual brake and clutch master cylinder all in one? If so i made a new rubber line with the proper ends on it. If this is what your asking about let my know i will post how i made it.

Hi blood i looked at the line today that i made and i used a hydraulic hose by the "WEATHERHEAD" company. The hose says weatherhead 1/4 H42504 COLL CRIMP USA. And it is brake fluid resistant.

I got it made a custom length to the size that worked the best. The only problem was it has on the female ends a 37 degree angle on the inside where the line would screw too. And steel brake lines are flared 45 degress. I didn't realize this till it was leaking around where i screwed it together. So i just silver soldered the brake lines i made up to the ends of the weatherhead hose steel lines that i cut off shorter. And i have had no problems with it so far in 3 years. The other option i just thought of today which is alot easier in my opinion, Just buy the shortest brake hose you can find that has the 1/4" ends i believe and make your own brake lines to hook up to the brake hose. Then have the one end go to your clutch cylinder and the other to the master cylinder. I hope this helps you out instead of confusing you. I still have my old original clutch lines with hose in my shop if you need measurments or any other questions just ask or e-mail me.
