Where can i buy the transmission lines? 200 1991

Like others have said, there is a fix described around the BB.

Here is my unofficial version of what seems to work. Look for other versions from people more experienced than me.

Go to autozone or other parts store and buy:
2 pieces of 3/8" fuel hose (I think this the right diameter) -- each piece about 6 inches long.
8 3/8" hose clamps (the screw kind)
a small tubing cutter

Safely secure the car on jackstands so you can work on the tranny lines.

The leak is probably at the metal clamp that holds the tranny lines against the bellhousing, but you should pinpoint exactly where your leaks are occurring.

Cut the first tranny line with the tubing cutter at the point of the leak.
Slide the fuel hose (and clamps) over each side of the tranny line so you patch the line with the hose.
Tighten the clamps (double clamp on each end of the hose).

Repeat on the second tranny line if it is leaking.

I have also done this repair with brass compression fittings and metal fuel line, but I think it is more time consuming and probably overkill.

Good luck.
