Transmission Cooling Line Fittings

[Silverandblack]

Anyone know where I could find new transmission cooling line fittings. I am seeking the fittings that go in the radiator, to which the hoses are conected , also the two part clip that holds the two lines in place.

Thank you for any help

Welcome Silverandblack!

I don't have an answer for you other than what I would do and that would be to call local parts places and perhaps a radiator shop.
Anyhow, welcome to Corvette Action Center.

The receiving female fittings are either crimped-and-soldered or furnace-brazed into the radiator side tanks (depending on whether you have a copper/brass or aluminum radiator); if they're stripped, you need to take the radiator to a radiator shop and have them assess the situation. They may be able to replace them, or you may need a new side tank and cooler.

Transmission Cooloing Line Fittings

I am seeking the actual fittings join the hoses to the radiator, not the units that are part of the radiator.

The male fittings themselves are standard SAE inverted flare fittings, available at any good auto parts store; some come with a flared length of tubing already in them, long enough to clamp the rubber hoses to. If you can't locate those, the complete cooler lines are available from GM and many reproduction sources (Classic Tube, Inline Tube, etc.) at reasonable prices.

Bought them at Zip products for a few bucks.
