trans lines
The lines I bought and measured and bent have flared ends already. The strange thing is only 1 of the is leaking at the rad, not both. I'm gonna be working on the beast this weekend. So I'll take the connections apart, make sure all is seated well, wrap it and try again. Also any tips, accessories, kits etc to get better mileage out of the 390 ci engine with a 1405 edelbrock carb?

on the tranny lines, tape wont work, the seal is not made with the thread, it's made at the flare by pressing the flare of the tube into the seat of the fitting..
not sure what you have without looking at it, but some of the old fords run a deep flare fitting on the radiator, it requires a special long flare male fitting on the line. The trucks tha have that, the fitting on the rad is usually black in color and has about a 1 inch long hex, you'll notice the hex on your line bottoms out with the hex on the radiator.
If you have the short fitting then your problem is on the mating surface of the flare. could be as simple as a spec of sand, or a rusty fitting.
