OEM-type metal lines from trans up to maybe 14-18" from trans cooler mounted on radiator
Ends of metal lines flared/barbed
Trans cooler fluid line hookups are NPT fittings w/ barbed ends
Rubber line supplied w/ trans cooler (Is this considered "high pressure"?)
Lines attached on both ends w/ screw-type hose clamps
NHRA rule book says the trans lines must be metal or "high pressure" type; doesn't specify attachment mechanism
It was never questioned in the past, but I wanted to ask anyway. Oh, mid-10 sec car, FWIW. Thx
I’ve seen enough carnage from leaking oil/fluid getting on the tires.
I don’t care what anyone says, manufacturer or not, I would never use any rubber in cooler lines.
Spend some time bending a nice set of lines and use flare fittings and never worry. Just put a wrench on each fitting once in a while to make sure they are tight.
