Can anyone confirm these are the correct cooling lines? I bough a 1998 Camaro roller to which I installed a 6.0l and 4l60e out of a 2004 GTO ( using a torque arm relocating crossmember )...I purchased these lines from a 4th gen salvage yard but they arent even close....since I didnt pull the car apart, can anyone confirm these are correct? Also the fittings on my 4l60e point directly to tunnel...if this trans had cooling fittings that point towards the front at an angle these lines might work....
They run alongside the oil pan rail and engine block with an oil pan bolt holding a clip at the passenger front of the oil pan. The lines hook into this clip and that holds the lines in place at the front of the engine.

But that left turn towards driver side at front of pan does that stay ground side exposed or above the engine saddle....why does it make this crazy back and forth?
The curves i have circled need straitend out so the lines hug the oil pan until they get to the hard bends right outside the circle that are roughly 45 degree angles. Those 45 degree angles is where the lines come off the oil pan to go around bell housing. The lines stay above the k-member. The U bend in the front will go behind the around in front of crank pulley. It is also much easier getting them in without the starter in, they are probably bent from being yanked out with engine still on k-member.
You can't install trans lines without at least jacking the engine up, Or tweaking the lines A LOT. Lowering the K-member while supporting the engine will work better.
Thanks guys that's exactly the info I needed ...I'm n poor physical shape and this car is for my wife ...I've never had one and didn't hear it down...its hard to go into something from scratch having never owned it or having anything for reference....
If,i can't wrestle them in why can't I just go straight forward and angle over leaving room for starter and AC compressor? Why does it make that weird turn and back by the crank pulley?
