I tapped the end of the master cylinder for the 1/8 NPT Pressure sensor from AEM.  Instead of a male 1/8 NPT as stated, the sensor came as a female.  The only fittings they provided were 1/8 NPT male to something I don't need.  To the hardware store tomorrow to find a 1/8 NPT male/male coupler.

 

In preparation for bench bleeding both the master cylinder and clutch, I'd like to find appropriate barb fittings for both cylinders.  It mic's at 10mm and the threads look like a 1.25.  Is this what I should be looking for?

Not all that helpful to you, but Iron Canyon has an adaptor that goes where the banjo bolt is on the master cyl. I've got one on my new car and it was a super easy install.

That's some funny chit right there.  No Dave's got hurt in the creation of this thread.  I found some M10 x 1.25 brake fittings that will take a 3/16 line.  I will just make 3 "stubs" and then connect them with vinyl hose back to the reservoir.
