Big brake conversion - where do I get the last bolt from

[balls-out]

I've nearly finished replacing my little weedy brakes on the LT1 camaro with some nice big Corvette ones



However I need a pair of the bolts that connect the brake pipe banjo into the caliper. Oddly enough its an metric bolt/thread (calipers are made in Oz), so American auto parts in Redhill didn't have any.
I'm sure I can get from from the US, but who might keep some more locally.

Many thanks for the links. I#ll try them tmorrow.
By a strange coincidenceI do actually have a holden on the drive, I hadn't through of nicking bits of that. I don't want start pulling its brakes apart or that'll be 2 cars that can't stop.

i think i have actualy done that kinda thing.
ps usa cars after say 1984 seem to have metric nuts/bolts.
Dont forget some new copper sealing washers for the bolts.

Try Monkfish near Milton Keynes.They are Monaro specialists and carry lots of stock. Lots of owners have gone for the even bigger AP set up.
p.s. I have a 6.0 LS2 Monaro with a Magnaflow exhaust.
