1957 f250 brake question

I’m looking for a brake line kit for a 1957 f250.

i found one for the f100, but I believe the flare threads are larger for the f250 in the wheel cylinders.

is the line still 3/16?

is there an issue with replacing the wheel cylinders with f100 cylinders? Will the bolt up and work even though the fitting is different?

I just need specs if someone has done it.

thanks!

Why not just bend new line yourself? Napa sells line with both ends on it, can be bent by hand without fear of kinking. Can't recall what it's called. Works great. They sell different lengths.
