Hey guys, I was just reading the Project Snowball articles in GMHTP and am now curious. Did any of you run into issues with your power steering set up? Will I have to do anything more than running some new lines to/from the pump?

i had to use the impala p/s pump line worked great.

I just took my high pressure line to a hydraulic hose shop and had them cut it in half (I pulled out the spiral metal thing inside it - dont know what it was, but it works fine without it), and splice in the necessary amount of hose to make it the right length. Works great.

Sounds like the Impala hose is a better, more bolt-on approach, but this will work fine as well.

I have heard for the f-body LT1s, if you have the lines, you can just bend them.

I bought my pressure line from o'reilys for like $35. I got a pressure line for a 95 caprice ss and it worked with minor bending. I had to move that thing where the wire plugs into on the thirdgen and moved it to the opening for it on the caprice line. For the return line, i just used a few feet of ps hose that i picked up from the parts store.

Cool, thanks guys. I hope to have the motor in the car soon!

I'm using the original PS cooler that came with the car, had some hoses and special high pressure couplings made up and it works like a charm.
