Will '66 Skylark A/T trans lines fit on a '65 Skylark?
« on: September 21, 2011, 01:24:01 PM »
Guys:

The part numbers are different, but does anyone know if '66 Skylark transmission cooling lines will fit a '65 Skylark... Both are ST300 & crowwflow radiators...

Provided the car is a crossflow radiator like you said your's is, they will fit.  Engine, transmission, engine mounts, frame towers, starter, radiator, fan shroud, lower core support crossmember, and frame are all the same.  Those are the only items in the area where the lines run.
