Velvet drive oil cooler hose

[Buttanic]

I am installing a 71 series Velvet drive and need to make up the oil hoses to the oil cooler and back to the sump and need to know what pressure rating hose is needed. It would seem that since only the excess oil from the pressure control valve dumps back into the transmission sump through the oil cooler there would not have very much pressure in the hoses or cooler.

Tain't a whole lot of pressure on those things. In the ole days, been known to use a length of garden hose with clamps when in a pinch.

Thanks Capt Ken,I didn't think there was a lot of pressure on them.
