88 TA Gearbox AN fittings

Hey guys,
Just wondering if you guys new of any kits that may work on a 88 Formula gearbox . I'd like to go with AN fittings and have found most threads on here that talk about the main pressure line using :

16mm x 1.5 to -6 AN (adapter for pump)
18mm x 1.5 to -6 AN (Adapter to Gearbox)

I'm understanding that this is for the High pressure side....

I can't find two things:

1. What kind of hose to use for High pressure side (I'm wanting to use a braided type hose)(AN style preferred)

2. What size is the return line on gearbox?

I have found this kit for 1980 and up: http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Gotta-...-Up,19959.html

but , can this kit be used on our cars. Just wondering. If you guys have any info or have done this , please inform me on how to do it.... and if I'm right on fittings for an 88 model gearbox and pump. Thanks again

Thanks
Marc

Re: 88 TA Gearbox AN fittings

I think he means the power steering pump and steering box. They re simply those metric o ring fittings you posted. The stering box takes a large and small one, the pump..no idea I never use stock pumps (only KRC pumps)
