What do you mean by quick disconnect?
I know mine has couplings in them right at the rear of the engine.
2000 coupe.

Ah, like the fuel line.
My 2000 is not that way. There are bolt together unions in the lines.

I know 2001 C5s have QD connections to connect the trans cooling lines to the radiator. The ones on my vette can be removed by using a wrench and unscrewing them or by using a tool to expand the locking clip and pulling the cooling line out of the fitting.
