Ken, I cheated on the shifter and went aftermarket to match the reverse valve body you know being a drag car and all Wink

 
Besides using the cooler in the radiator I also run a large aftermarket that I bent the lines for

Thak your time and it will look like it was made that way from the factory.

Mine came from Advance Auto Parts. It is a ToughOne or Ready-Rad P/N 433403 and it was shipped to my home for $207.99.

The last time I replaced trans cooler lines, I bought them with fittings on both end which negates the need for a flaring tool. Take one of the lines with you to the local parts house and measure how long you need it. Buy a tube bender (they are really cheap) and get under the car. Start at the front and work your way to the trans. There will be hangers attached to the oil and trans pans. Use them and you are in clover.

Later!

I got my radiator from Advance as well. It looks to be the same thing other than the outlets. I'll have to take it back out of the box and look again to be certain (I bought it three years ago right when I put the car in storage), but I'm fairly certain they exit straight. Either way, I have to replace one of the lines now since it broke, so I might as well do both.
 
Do you remember where you bought the lines with fittings from? How different is brake line from transmission cooler line?


I just bought one for 178.49+10.71 tax. They have a percentage off promotion till the 14th. promo code B52
