I am in the middle of an 80E swap and want to get rid of the factory trans lines and replace them with -6AN Braided hose From Trans to rad to cooler.

I Already have a Tru cool installed , i used some braided hose and stainless swedgelok compression fittings to adapt to the factory lines, which i want to get rid of.

But HERE IS WHERE I NEED HELP -----------

What size are the fittings in the radiator?

I want fittings that will screw in the radiator and adapt to a AN FITTING.

Any idea where to buy them ??

I already bought the Trans adapters that screw in the case and adapt to -6AN, But im not sure how to adapt to the radiator.


I DONT want to bypass the radiator.

I have combed thru the Tru Cool Thread and no one has included the radiator hookup when they installed the tru cool. All ive seen have skipped the rad and went straight to the cooler.

Thanks in advance!

I think i read over that and didnt give it a second thought cuz it was the quick connect factory line fitting.

So Can any one confirm that 5/8 inverted flare is the correct size for the factory fittings in the rad.?


Thankyou for help country boy, appreciate it

Hughes performances has fittings. Also why are you wanting to go into the radiator and then into the tru cool? Just wondering, because I am putting an 80e in mine and wanted another opinon.

I had to shorten the ends on these where they go into the cooler, because they were about 6" to long. I just re-flared them and they fit perfect.
