Question Brake Line Thread Pitch?

I have been told that for the 1981 model year, Mazda changed the thread pitch on the brake line fittings to 1.25.

Is this correct and if so, what thread pitch is the 79-80 RX-7s use?

I don't know what the thread pitch IS, but I can confirm that they are different.

They are same in these year sets.

79-80
81-83
84-85

What do you need the thread pitch for?
Stainless Brake Lines?
Adapters?

What?

I have a set of stainless steel brake lines which are 1.25 thread pitch and I dont know for sure if they are off of a 79-80 RX-7. The package is open and I think the calipers are not the original on the front.
