Stupid search function has to broke again on this board. Way to many of the same old same old questions asked lately. GM doesn't sell the line except with the master. McLeod sells their version of the line but they want your first born as payment. Textralia bragged about coming out with their own version of this line several months back, but that must have failed miserably. Finding a used one in the junkyard or in the For Sale forum is some other options.

heh...don't bother trying to make a plastic replacement line, it won't work. Here's a link to the For Sale forum, seems as though Lethal_Ws6 will sell you his used master cylinder and or slave. Might sill have the braided line too:

BTW, the Search option is an awesome tool and it works.

Not an option, it is like a brake line fitting. It is high pressure. Brake systems generally run 1000-2000 psi. I am willing to bet the clutch systems are in that range. I have never put a pressure gauge on one B-4.

You want teflon braided steel most likely.
