Default t56 90 degree quick disconnect

Does an adapter for an f-body t56 quick disconnect in 90 degree form exist?
Something that does not require to remove the trans from the car.

My transmission tunnel is very small and the clutch line is rubbing on it.
If not would an hydraulic shop be able to modify the quick disconnect with a 90 degree hard line to a braided line like now?

Thanks

I created a thread back in 2008 where I installed a bleeder line but I had to mod the bleeder screw, use a 90* and a 45* AN fitting (not quick disconnect), cut a hole in the tunnel (since I didn't remove the tranny). Probably not what you are looking for but thought I would share.

Are you asking for a remote bleeder? Plenty on the market and DIY instructions to make your own.

If it's really that tight, you could do away with the OEM fittings, and just use teflon lines with no disconnect, or install an inline disconnect somewhere else.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I have a remote bleeder, but I'm talking about the main clutch line, the one with the gold quick disconnect fitting on it. The problem is the fitting is right at the edge of the transmission and there is not a lot of space and it's rubbing on the transmission tunnel. I might have to take apart the transmission, get a AN adapter and then a 90 an fitting

Monaro and I presume GTO fitments have a hard steel line from slave to outside bellhousing, and then a quick release mounted remotely. This would certainly be more compact.
