Paul - are these hard stainless steel or are they the high tech rubber?

Clarence Buskirk is an advocate of rerouting the transmission
fluid
lines along the frame, using Aeroquip lines and fittings, in
order to
elimanate the exhaust heat source.

I have a Ragusa Transmission cover on order. Any recommendations
on
Trans
temp sensor and gage?

I just had Thorley headers installed. I find the oil cooler
hoses about
2-3"
from the headers on one side and transmission lines running
right under
the
header on the driver's side. At the moment, I plan to pick up
some
insulation (it looks like the split looms you use to cover wire
harness
with) from a local speed shop at $60 for a 15 ft
section...sigh. Any
suggestions? I don't see that a metal shield is feasible.

Eric:

Since I was out of town when you sent this I don't believe I answered
you.

Although I haven't installed such, it's my understanding that they are
steel lines.
