Is it ok if you run the tranny lines with rubber high pressure hoses or would it be better if they were the metal type?

thanks guys, Well I went ahead and went to the junkyard and bought some hardlines for 4 bucks. Hopefully my tranny will quit leaking.

I prefer steel.

Although, on the 95 LT1/4L60-E swaps I've worked on, I believe those are steel with a section of flex in them. Hmmmm.
