Default 200-4R Transmission Lines

I'm at the point of hooking my 200-4R transmission lines to the radiator & then on to the additional cooler in front of the rad.......I'm thinking about using flexible lines all the way.

However, I'm wondering if the hard lines for the 200-4R should be used and modified as needed to get to the additional cooler.

Anybody got opinions?

Anybody got photos of how their trans lines are routed?

on my 700r4 i used hard lines the entire way.....the last thing you want is for these to break you can use compression fittings if you need to splice into them

That's basically my plan right now.....the store manager has been out to my shop a couple of times checking fittings & measuring lengths...he says go with flex....but, I'm not sure of routing as I'm using Hooker headers with side pipes.
