Default 4L60E Trans Fittings for 1st Gen Camaro Swap

Can anyone tell me what they're using for transmission fittings? I was planning to use a 1/4 NPSM to -6AN at the transmission and then use a 90 degree AN fitting but the clearance at the shift tunnel looks a little tight. Was curious what others are running.

I'm looking in to Sweet performance and pure vision which both carry them.
they also have banjo fittings if you need more room.

I tried the AN fittings from Sweet for a 4L60E in a 69. They would not work without tunnel mods for clearance.

I ended up massaging the tunnel and re bending the OEM lines for clearance. I then used a compression AN adapter on the lines just forward of the firewall and ran braided stainless to the radiator.

That's my concern with using the 1/4"NPSM to -6AN adaptor screwed into the transmission. Then tying a 45 degree -6AN Female to -6AN hose adaptor to run to the cooler. The clearance looks awful tight but I don't have the fittings either. Maybe I'll just use the stock fittings and make two short lines and then tie stainless lines into that and run to the cooler. I don't want to modify the tunnel if I don't have to.
