cooling line question 904 /727

Ok, so most of the old lines are still there, just a section connecting the radiator is missing? If that's the case you could just replace the missing sections connecting the new and old line sections with compression fittings. 5/16" brake line is the right size, just the fittings are different. The fittings and flares on the factory trans. lines aren't easy to come up with so what I'd do is change the adapter fittings in the radiator to ones that'll screw to the brake lines. You could probably do all that for less than $15 and it'd be a bunch easier than changing the entire lines. Just a thought.
