Default Radiator tramission lines reducer question

I have a 95 blazer and the radiator was damaged from an accident. My local junk yard sold me a 98 blazer radiator and it bolted right in. The problem that I ran into was the tranmission lines on the 95 blazer are 5/16 and the holes in the radiator are 3/8. Is there an adapter that I can purchases that will reduce the whole from 3/8 to 5/16? If so, where can I purchase this reducer?

Thanks

You need a good plumbing supply house, not home depot, someplace with a front desk.
Bring them a close up pic with the head of a sharp pencil in the pic and bring the pencil.
They should be able to hook you right up.

If I recall they use an adapter to accept the pushlock line fitting. The actual fitting that threads into the rad is 3/8 NPT(ony 96 anyway).
