Transmission is special GM single bolt quick connect flange. QC type fittings also from lines to cooler. Generally.

Or you can push 3/8 A/T hose over the QC ridges IIRC. i.e. use something like a G8 or maybe Camaro trans pipe set which brings the pipes out alongside the balancer and use rubber A/T hose from there.

I found out they make 3/8 pipe to -6an fittings. Im going to go that route. I didnt want to cut anything but I want everything as clean as possible too.
