Some more help pleae !!

Well i'm marching on with Rays F1 pickup, got the booster kit and pedal assembly installed now i'm stuck again. It seems the calipers in the kit from CCP have no banjo bolts for the calipers so there's a hiccup.
The master cylinder comes with no brake fittings at all, and here's where i need help, the kit is pictured below.

1 Does anyone know what calipers these are, ie Mustang 2 ?

2 The master cylinder, it has 2 outlets on the left side [viewed from the front] these fittings are almost a centimeter across, can you get fittings that size or is there a reducer and what size thread are they?

3 I can see the rear brakes are fed from the compensator attached to the unit, but which do i use for front left and right or does it not matter?

4 What size fitting goes into the front brake hose?

5 I take it i can use 3\8ths brake pipe which is readily available here?

I'm hoping you guys who helped me out before can bare with me as the only fittings available here seem to be all metric no-ones stocking the old imperial sizes.

Your best bet is to contact CCP and see what the provide - Unless someone bought the same kit you will be getting a bunch of guesses

Those look like GM calipers like found on mid-70s Chevelles. I used a similar kit once and it required 73-77 Chevelle calipers. The banjo fittings are pretty universal for GM calipers from the late 60s to the early 80s...

3/8" would be huge for brake lines, that's fuel line size, did you mean 3/16"?
