I'm getting ready to complete my th400 swap and am curious if there are any reasons I should go with braided cooler lines, and if so could you let me know what all is needed. Thanks guys

6-an braided line and straight connectors. Some adapter fitting for the transmission and radiator and cooler.
Some people say to put 45* connectors at the transmission, but
straight connectors work better.
I'll get you a list on the adaptor later today.

The adapters are Flare-to-Pipe Adapters.
I want to say -6 AN to 1/4" NPT.

Ok, my cooler has the barb fittings, what should I use to hook those up?

The adapters are -06 Flare x 1/2-20 MIF.
I went to the radiator first then to the cooler.
My cooler has the barb fittings also, I just rolled the braid back and put a hose clamp
on it. But they do make a fitting for it to mate up to a -06 AN connector.
I got my parts from Godman Hi-Performance in Memphis, TN.
You can call them and they will take care of you or just ask them what you need.

Earls also makes the -6 x 1/2-20 fitting, part # 991946. I used these on my TH400, just screw them into the factory fitting adapter on the trans where the original steel lines connected. A lot of people think the threads in the case are 1/4 npt, but they're not. You need the OEM adapters in the case plus the -6 x 1/2 fittings to work properly.

ok i just looked at my transmission and it appears there is no adapter,the case is just threaded, is there something thats missing?
edit: will this work?http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rus-640520/overview/ says cooler lines to case. not cooler lines to case adapter

Yes! That will work great without any other adapters. One less leak point.

That's even better than the adapters.
