I'm not sure they are from my experiences...

ISO is a Bubble Flare - having a Convex (rounded) tip which mates with the concave part in the fitting -ISO brake line))ISO fitting

SAE? is a double flare - having a concave tip which mates with a convex part in the

fitting SAE brake line((SAE fitting

I been working on my Buick which has ISO flares and a person from discount auto sold me double flare fitting for my ISO lines, i tried to put the on not knowing they were different, but they didn't fit very well. -ISO brake line)(SAE fitting

I'm sure there might be a way to wrench the thing down on it to get one to bend. or maybe flare down a bubble flare so it becomes a Double flare? I'm not sure.

How does the brake vacuum system work on a 1963 Chevy Impala If I push on the brake pedal I hear a hissing sound inside and the car stalls out?

If you have a power brake booster then there will be a vaccum line that runs to the brake booster on the firewall from the carburator. Check the booster for holes and broken fittings or buy a new booster. if no brake booster then brakes shouldn't affect vaccum
