Mate,

I just did that very conversion on my VH the other weekend! I'm in the Adelaide area and did a bit of calling around to find the adapters. no luck for me here so I opted to take all the rigid lines out of the car completely and take them to my brake place. They re-flared the ends for $38 (including new threads). I thought it was going to be a nightmare threading the lines through the clips and cables but it wasn't too bad at all.

I did look in other forums about the prices for adapters and found that they ranged from 20-60 bux each. If you have some readily available for 20 and don't want to mess around too much then $20 each sounds really good to me.

Also the upgrade makes a huge difference. I changed the booster and master cylinder to a VS booster and VT SS cylinder. Everything bolted straight up and works so well that I'm a little afraid to step on them really hard for fear that something else will break!

Good luck mate.

just finished this conversion and what amazing difference it has made .Hopper stoppers sent me the wrong copper washers , so may be use race brakes , as it cost me hours to get around this stuff up- not worth the $ difference in my opinion .
Thanks to MARKOVR his conversion was worth every cent and i recommend him to anyone , and his technical help is second to none and prompt - many emails ,all responded too. Very trusted forum member in my opinion , well worth using in this conversion .
