CNC and others make the metric to NPT adapter fittings.

Thanks for the link. I have looked for such adapters, and now I know where to find them. This allows much flexibility in how to install the system. I believe I will run an US brake line front to rear and mount the valve under the rear seat.

I wonder if the proportioning valve should be higher than the master cylinder, and then install a bleeder by the valve? Any thoughts?

Thanks again for your help!
