Another TH200R4 question...
I'll need to know which one of the cooling ports is the one that the hot fluid exits and which one is the port that the cooled fluid returns??
I'm going to install a temperature sensor on the line that contains the hot fluid....so I need to know..

GS - on another note. Watch out using rubber hose and clamps. I blew mine off twice with a performance 700R4. I finally took it to the tranny shop and had hard lines ran the whole way.
No clue on the line config. I gave my book away.

I use braided rubber hoses from the speed shop...

ditto on flaring the end of the pipe. Use a brake line double flaring tool, and do the second flare about half way to get a bubble flare. On a Th-400, the return is the top port, don't know on your tranny.

The top line is the pressure line and the bottom line is th return. Make sure you add a line filter in the return line for the first couple hundered miles to catch any break-in metal floating in there.
