Transmission cooler line

Okay, So I have a 1983 Camaro Z28, with a 5.7L V8 from a '91 Pontiac GTA. It also has a TH350 transmission. I need to know what the fittings are for the transmission lines, and where I can get them. I need the line that connects the transmission to the radiator and to the oil cooler. If anyone knows anything, Id greatly appreciate it.

Re: Transmission cooler line

The fittings into the transmission are normally 1/8" pipe fittings (might be 1/4" pipe). The lines that go into the fittings are normally standard inverted flare brake lines.

Re: Transmission cooler line

Right:

¼" pipe into the case; the lines are 5/16" inverted flare; the adapters that go from the pipe to the flare are usually brass and are usually left intact in the case (i.e. not missing). Look at yours and see.
