<font size=3>the cluch pipe is one size larger than the brake pipe. the
clutch pipe willnot screw directly into the master cylinder without some
adapter fitting. The banjo fitting provides the larger port fot

My question is this: this group of parts that goes between the
master and the metal line itself – is it really necessary??? The
brake line goes directly into the master; is there any good reason why
the clutch goes through all these parts? (this is from the Scarborough
Faire catalog)<br>

I’m thinking it makes sense to just bypass it and have them make a line
that follows the correct path going directly into the master bypassing
all that. Yes I know it will be longer and have some additional
undulations.<br>
<br>
I just don’t see a good engineering reason to have the banjo bolt there
when the tubing could just plug directly into the master like for the
brake line.<br>
