direction of flow on ST Auto trans coolant lines? Options

[mandrek]

Ok, so i'm about to drop this motor in today (if all goes well) and i got a new cooler for the trans, as well as an external filter and temp sensor. the filter is obviously one directional... so i need to know which line is the out and which is the in.. ive looked up all that i can on this, and found plenty on how to hook it up (which i dont need.. lol) but nothing that shows the direction of flow.. anyknow
ok, so this is looking at it from the front.. the motor is to the left.


any one know which of the two taped hard lines is the in and which is the out?

blue tape on left=in or out?

blue tape on the right=in or out?

I suppose you could always fill the torque converter and put it on the trans in preperation of installing the transmission. Then dump a few quarts of trans fluid into the transmission and hand prime it by spinning the torque converter clockwise. Sooner or later you should get a flow of transmission fluid out of one the cooler lines and then you will know for certain which side is feeding the transmission cooler.

Or you could wait for someone to respond and hope that they are correct.
