yep. and -8 lines make for an easy install with no leaks...just pricey. Like anything else though you usually get what you pay for.

do you guys have any pics of the fittings going into the trans for the SS braided lines?
We had to use the stock metal line for a short run from the trans then to braided lines since it was really really tight to get the fittings and the SS lines up and next to the trans.

I dont have any pictures and am running a TH400 so it might be a little different, but there is ample room for my -8 fittings and I can even get a wrench on them with a little angle to tighten/loosen with no fuss.
