Series 3 cars had different union threads.

I have a spare union block connector for you, but can't check till Monday.

Your in luck, one on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/170996234321?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Looking at the pictures and the talk of you changing wheel cylinders, I assume your quite handy with the Spanners / Sockets  Grin Grin.

Different thread was introduced during june 1982 so there are a lot of MkIII fiat 131 that have the old version. Same with seat 131 braking system, they changed thread and also front brakes during MkIII production.

Is it sorted now? If not I would just make up a brake pipe with the correct union on each end.
