It requires a special banjo fitting, consisting of bolt with an inverted flare in the head of it. This bolt passes through a brass block which provides for attachment of an additional brake line.
For some reason, this setup splits the front left wheel from the other 3 wheels at the master cylinder. Models prior to '51 did not. There was simply one single inverted flare on the end of the master cylinder which fed all four wheels.
