Default Wilwood calipers: What size are the threads?

The Superlite 6-piston C5 caliper to be exact, but I suppose they're pretty standard fittings.


The brake line inlet is 1/8-27 NPT

The bleeders are 1/4-28 normal thread

The bleeders though, thread into brass adapters, which thread into the caliper, along with the lower crossover line. What size are these holes?

Look about 3/8" diameter. I presume they're straight threads, since the crossover tube appears to use compression fittings.

Default

the brass bleed adapter that goes into the caliper is a 10-1.0. I found out the hard was when I snapped a bleed valve off and had to use the speedbleeders from my OEM calipers
