How are you guys doing your transmission cooler lines? I tried to use the original hard lines to at least get it to the front of the engine, but I can't find a way to make them fit with the new mounts and manifold.

I see lots of AN adaptors to connect hose to the transmission, but not sure that's the best route given that it's just a tube & hose clamp on the radiator end.

Is there a way to flare the existing steel hardline so it would hold a hose better? Maybe use that to get around the bellhousing, the run hose the rest of the way.

Firstly, I converted the trans oil cooler to AN fittings. The hard lines of the GM trans has AN fittings on it so then I ran ‘soft lines’ from the oil cooler to the hard lines.
 
how are you guys dealing with a l99 camaro swap wrt fuel pump system and it being pulse modulation? if i get the entire intake sender unit, what other modules do i need to get?

is the 80 series fuel lever sender separate from the suction pipe in a diesel tank? should i leave the sender alone, cap the suction pipe and cut a new hole for the camaro setup?
 
Anyone have some printed instructions for installing Marks adaptor?

Is that a direct injection motor? You will have to search other forums because nobody on mud has swapped one yet.

They have instructions if u look on the marks website. Advance adapters does also.
 
No it's not direct inject. Its pulse modulation. So instead of pump on all the time it pulses to maintain pressure apparently an ecu controls it base on a pressure sensor

I’m ether blind, or I need to pull out my computer to look it up, because I’m not finding anything online via my phone.

Man am I blind!
Looked right over that more than a handful of times last night. 🤦‍♂️
Thanks
 
Those of you using the 4l60e 2WD transmission, does this look correct? Using all 3 pieces to the adaptor?

Mine didn't have that Allen plug on the top right, maybe an updated design? Make sure you red loctite all the adapter bolts.

I was just thinking the same thing. I don’t remember that being there either.
