Installing valet.. what is the banjo bolt threads

I got my valve and am now needing to get the tubing and fittings for my valet switch. I would like to get the correct threads for my fittings, but it seems like from what I have read you must either tap the AFC, or use a different thread pattern.

I am wanting to do some more investigating to see if I can get the correct fittings, but do not know what the thread pattern the banjo bolt uses. Can anyone help me out? Any suggestions would be great.

Easier to tap the afc head to 1/8 NPT. Then you can use standard fittings.

thats what i did. the AFC tophat's threads are brass anyway so it takes just seconds to drill and tap it for 1/8-27 npt.
