Brake line differences between a 82 and a 90

[JeffP1167]

I remember my 82 trans am having standard flair etc and made it a hassle when converting the car to 1990 firebird parts due to the 90 having metric lines.

Is a 82 vette the same way? I plan on using my entire 82 brake line setup but use a 90 master cylinder and 90 calipers.

Also while one the subject of brakes what can be used to plug my wheel speed sensors or is it best to just snip the wires at the sensor and use it. Or can a freeze plug be used to plug the hole?

82 is all sae

if you want to use abs you need to retain the sensors

Not going to run abs, just going to sell all my electronics.

are adapters sold to make the 82 lines work?

You could get custom lines made or use AN lines and adapters. You can get -3an banjo ends, then use a 3 an line to the chassis and use an adapter to get from the inv. flare to -3 an, not a prob (or reflare ends for -3an sleeve + nut)
