Trans Lines?

[mackthehack]

Noticed my trans lines starting to leak. Going to buy from Alligator and two options are offered. The regular ass set and the performance set. The performance set is for a built trans and high hp motor. I'm close to 600hp which isn't high and my trans is built.

Will the performance set work for my setup? Will I have any problems due to running the bigger diameter lines?

bump im curious too. it sounds like the brackets will fit with 1/2 inch but not 5/8

I used the 5/8" lines and they fit and work well. I figured as long as the application is a built trans, the 5/8" lines should be utilized, if the application was a stock trans stick with the 1/2" set

Thanks coco and Dustin. I think I'll use 1/2 to make the job easier

Everyone I talked to said 1/2 was plenty even for a built trans. They said they had a few people specifically request 5/8 so that's why they offer both.

I ordered the Fleece lines. During the replacement, I cracked the cooler trying to break a fitting loose... F@CK!!!!

I've got the 5/8" lines on my LB7. They fit nice and allowed easy installation of the BD trans cooler I put in place of the stocker.

I just replaced mine with the factory set. My issue was the lines were rusting through by the clamp that holds them still by the oil pan. Took mine near 5 hours! Next time I will just make my own lines so that it will be easier to install! Oh, and if you do use the factory replacement, order them from GM parts direct, almost half the price. I should never have looked!
