I know at least the trans uses 5/16" flare fittings.

Re: transmission cooling line help

None of those will work. The fitting going into the transmission case is 1/8 NPT.

I simply used the factory lines and cut them about 2" off the transmission. I just slid the steel braided lines over the tubes and secured them with hose clamps. With limited access and a tranny shield, loosening the hose clamps makes removing the cooler lines so much easier.

Re: transmission cooling line help

1/8 npt in trans.
5/16 lines and ends.
wouldn't ever recommend anything but solid line in between such large gaps. connections yes, but not for long distances. Note: trans fluid is very flammable, it will catch you, your car, or both on fire if not handled properly. I know this might sound paranoid but i've caught many cars on fire during fill up of the trans when the fluid burps out of the tube after a overhaul, and it is scramble time to get it out, I've had a pressure gauge blow out on me too and burned the car to the ground- I'm not fire prone, just a busy guy.
