I may not be able to help you out with the tranny cooler lines too well. I used pipe to AN4 unions at the radiator side. Hooked up a couple sections of #4 braided line to #4-#5 reducers that hook up to the stock line near the trans that I cut and flared to #5AN.
The other 2 holes on the right side are for- top hole is low coolant sensor (bought from Ecklers). Bottom hole is for drain.
I also took out the stock rubber mount pieces, and used 3" sections of heater hose cut lenghtwise down the center to mount the radiator. I put one on each corner, and it is holding nicely. Also had to cut the upper shroud a bit to get everything to fit.

I don't have any pictures right this minute, but I can get some pics tomorrow of the installed unit to you.
