First off there is no dumb or ignorant question.   The only one is the one 
not asked when  you do not know. l  Now most line's from a 727 will be 
usuable  from the trans toward the rad.  You should be able to make them 
work if from a E body or even a A body that has a 904.  Lines are pretty 
much the sam.e
