Need C6 info please

I just purchased a C6 tranny for my truck and want to know for certain that everything gets hooked up correctly. There are two lines that connect to the side of the transmission. Please tell me which one is the sending and which one is the return. I also have a radiator that has the transmission lines on the bottom side of the tank and would like to know which one is recieving and which is sending. I also bought a new torque converter for it and was told that if you do not install these properly that as soon as you start the engine, you could burn up the trans. pump, so please give me some instruction on doing this as well. Thanks in advance for any help.

The line at the front of the tranny is hot oil from the torque converter, the rear line is the return.

It does not matter with the radiator. If it were my truck I would add a cooler but still use the radiator cooler in the circuit.
Flush the radiator cooler, pressure and leak check to prevent a trans failure in the future. Is this a 1/2 or 3/4 ton? Use the correct tailshaft case.
