I did the same, I just bought some copper tubing and made my own. I think it should hold up fine.

copper wont be just fine. It will fatigue and just crack when you least expect it , it cant handle the vibration and movement of the driveline

if you want to bend your own use steel or stainless , local parts stores should have 5/16 tubing with correct ends but they normally dont carry lenghts long enough to do tranny lines in one peice

inlinetube.com or classictube.com can supply the raw tubing or ready to use prebent lines specifically for the turbo regal

With the motor in the car it might be almost impossible to put a one piece bent tranny line in place. I had to replace one of mine d/t it tapping/resting on the frame for 18 years. I just used two steel tubes and a brass coupler to join them.

i just ran some aeroquip trans hose in the frame to a B&M trans cooler.

does anyone know where i could look up a part number for the tranny lines? i dont want to make my own, i would rather have oem stuff on the car.

thx

I purchased new pre-bent trans lines from www.classictube.com. They're very high quality.
