Braided trans lines, adapting to factory lines at radiator

I am kind of afraid of a slip over type compression fitting, I am wating to use the factory ends that screw in the radiator at the cooler. I could flare the line, is that the best option for getting to a AN fitting and then to the braided line?

I wouldn't be afraid of a compression fittin...it will hold alot more PSI that the trans can put out.

the problem is finding the right size or the right adapter.....I have yet to find what you want.
someone said earls had the right thing but I searched high and lo and never found anything......

If I understand you ...you want to adapt the stock radiator fitting/cooler to AN.....

I want to cut the factory line, use the fitting that screws in the radiator and convert the tube to AN. I wouldn't think there was a AN type flare you could screw into the radiator.
