LT1 swap : Power steering pump only has one Line ?? How do I hook up ??

The engine and all accessories is from a 1994 Caprice. I've got one line coming from the pump, another going to the reservoir.

The car is a 88 V-6 and the power steering has 2 hook ups, one i'm sure for inlet, the other for low pressure return.

How Do I hook up the LT-1 pump up to this ??

The power steering hydraulic system should be setup like this:

The remote resevoir should have a large feed hose going to the pump. The pressure line should go from the pump to the steering box. And the return line should go from the steering box back to the remote resevoir, not the pump. With the older style (like your V6), the return would go back to the pump only because the resevoir was integral with the pump.
