MG MGA - Hydraulic brake pressure distribution

The MGA has a 5-port female fitting (US Moss #180-230) and I need to know if the 5 female ports accept 3/8-24 inverted flare male fittings.

I'm doing some custom work on another marque.

Thanks for your help,

the 4 way union is bubble flare for the brake lines the 5th port is for the brake light switch and is tapered pipe thread 1/8" I beleive

Chuck,

I second what Charles has said. Bubble flares, not inverted flares. The bubble flare is just a inverted flare that has not had the second flaring step performed.
