Classic Industries Stock Trans cooler lines

[Mr. Belvedere II]

Has anyone used the classic industries pre bent stock replacement trans cooler lines? I am wondering how easily they will fit around headers or starter or anything. I have been hemmoraging trans oil I assume from the lines as it is dripping from the K member forward in location of the actual transmission. I also have considered eliminating a cooler altogether but haven't seen any posts where that seems like it was regarded as a wise thing to do. Also have considered just going to Uhaul and having them just install one of theirs which I remember not being very costly. Input is appreciated!

I have a spare big block B-body set from Fine Lines which fit very nice. Where in MA are you?

I live in Chelmsford, are from the area? I have already purchased the small block set from CI and just wondering if anybody has installed them and if so if they are as plug and play as I'm hoping they are!

I'm down near Foxboro; not too far away. If the small block lines are anything like the big block lines, they will fit, but some minor tweaking may be needed.

Great, they should be arriving tomorrow! Hopefully i can dig a hole in the snow and get beneath my car and get those bad boys in, I hear we are in for some weather! Or I could just wait a couple days, but I just don't feel right unless I have bloody knuckles at least once a week..we'll see.

Installed the CI stock pre-bent trans oil cooler lines today! I have to say I was very happy with the ease at which they installed. It is helpful to have a friend at the radiator location just to help guide them but with a little madoogling here and there they went right in. Tightened them up with a 5/8 crescent wrench, and walk away Renee.. Had to disconnect shift linkage and kickdown linkage but that was nothin. I would recommend these 100% to anyone thinking of replacing their trans lines. I can't even imagine the hair pulling to bend my own. I can now say with confidence, "That wasn't my car that left that spot on your driveway... That was already there."
