Is the thread for the trans. line on a stock 350 case a 1/4 NPT?

Yes, the TH-350 is 1/4" NPT, as is the TH-400. I think all NPT to AN adapters made by Aeroquip, Earls, etc. are tapered NPT, rather than the OEM which is not tapered and uses a sealing washer. You can definitely crack the case if one of these type of adapters is over tightened due to the fact it is tapered.
