Just a note,
                As far as tranny cooling lines and oil cooling lines getting
plugged. I would loop the lines on both, and not plug them. There are pumps
moving the flow of oils and you don't want to strain the pumps by stopping
the flow. The radiator hoses would be ok if not run for an extended period
because the thermostat will keep the water from circulating until it reaches
temperature anyway. Just a thought,
Steve
