C6 Cooler line threads and Band question Empty C6 Cooler line threads and Band question

Post  HorsinAround September 21st 2014, 8:32 pm

What is the thread for the cooler line adapters? I want to run -6 line to the coolers and am not sure what the diameter and threads are for the steel line adapters.

Band. How tight should the band be? A video I have says to tighten the bolt to 10in-lbs then loosen 1 full turn. When I do that, the band seems awful loose.

1 turn should be good try 3/4 turn  for the band . It  depends on the year case for the cooler line  size  ! 6 an to 1/8 nps is what I use

Here are the tube adapters from the tranny. Look to be 1/8" to me. Now, NPS or npt?
