Is the banjo bolt on the new edge GT PBR the same as the one needed for the ATS Brembo?

The PBR caliper on my 2003 GT has the coarse thread. The Brembo caliper has fine threads. I do not know the dimensions of the correct banjo bolt at this time. I already have Russell stainless lines. Just need to find the correct bolt now....Is the banjo bolt on the new edge GT PBR the same as the one needed for the ATS Brembo?
On a completely separate note, do not use the VHT high temp caliper paint. This stuff might as well be regular rattle can paint as far as resistance to brake fluid. I followed the full instructions, baked them and everything. I just assumed that since this this is specifically for calipers it would be resistant to brake fluid. Nope. All the effort I put into prepping these was a waste. Eff it. I’m leaving it with the new stripes caused by fluid runs. It’s a track car more or less. At least the Cadillac logo is covered.
That is what he is getting at. The product he thought that was going to be brake fluid resistant, was the quality of cheap rattle can paint. Don't think he was stating rattle can will suffice. Yeah, brake fluid is some nasty stuff.No rattle can paint will withstand brake fluid. It has NOTHING to do with VHT. Ive seen brake fluid lift powder coat as well.

Well when he says don't use VHT paint it seems like he's blaming the paint.
Do you not know what VHT caliper paint is?
Nope. Not in all my 20+ years of working on cars have I ever heard or seen a single can of VHT paint.
But in all seriousness even baked/cured VHT will still lift with brake fluid despite what they tell you. Been there done that, hence why I said no rattle can paint will withstand brake fluid.
Pedal Ratios
I'm trying to do some calculations on MC bore diameter and what is ideal and need some info on pedal ratio.
The Fox/early SN95 cars use a 13" long brake pedal (pad to pivot) with 3.5" from pivot to booster rod point. That's a 3.7 pedal ratio.
Does anyone have a hydroboost pedal assembly out and can measure the brake pedal length (center of pad to pivot) and lenght of pivot to booster rod attachment?
