Default TH400 braided lines

How are you guys routing the lines to the cooler? Up along the inner fender on the frame rail near the header or under the car? Doesn't seem like much room. Cooler is a large B&M mounted in front. Any pics?

Well, still not sure. Any pics? My Rossler th400 has a JW bell, so 1/2 the flexplate is exposed and there isn't much room between the headers (1 7/8 ARH) and the frame rail. I want to get them away from the flexplate. Car was a 6-speed, so I don't know how the factory lines were routed. Thanks.

mounted this under the rear trunk floor.... ran 3/8 alum line up to a small plate attached to cage structure with a couple bulkhead connectors, then got the quick disconnect lines to run from the trans to the cooler bulkhead fittings.

Got the trans cooler out of the engine bay, one less thing up there to deal with.

I'll try to get more pictures when I am in the garage next time if needed

Ill take one this week. That is the flat panel that replaced the t top well, you can see the inside of the rear bumper in that picture. If you still have a stock tank and t top well you could mount it inside the rear bumper cover with a little creativity.
