This is what I need. Just don't know yet how to measure properly the female radiator port. I can measure ID ( It's over 1/2" just barely ) and then get the thread tool to measure the TPI. But, that doesn't tell me what "brand" threads those are, whether American, British, etc and/or what type of seal is required. Maybe the thread tool will discern those things?

Guess I'm off to Lowes or someplace to find that tool.

Thanks,

If I were you, I'd use a precision caliper to measure the bore, a thread gauge to measure the TPI, and see if I could research an adaptor fitting that used those measurements while also being compatible to the factory fitting on the other end. Essentially, a brass plug that turns the aluminum radiator's fitting into the one you need for the tranny lines.
