727 trans cooler line pressures
« on: August 26, 2011 - 01:17:25 PM »
How much pressure is typically found in the trans cooler lines running to the radiator oil cooler, especially the trans outlet line pressure?

Thanks Chryco for reply. Just trying to decide whether to use an-type fittings or hose barbs for running some tubing.

anything you can do with AN you can do with the Cheaper Steel fittings Jic type fittings , it would be better done with proper fittings over just using barbs & I am sure you could by all the steel fittings for about $15 !! Barb fitting with simple worm gear clamps work just fine as well just use a high quality hose for trans lines .
