I bought a set of twin turbo z brakes, but one of the calipers has a stripped threading for the brake line area. What size is this so I can retap it or do you recommend any other options of fixing it? Thanks in advance for trying to help my situation.

It's M10x1.0.
If its stripped badly you'll probably have to use a heli-coil.

its totally stripped out. I will definitely have to helicoil them since retap doesn't grab anything.
