Re: power steering hoses
If I remember corect the powersteering hose (feed/pressure side) from a camaro threaded right into my 87 steering box. I just needed to bend the hard line a little to route it. As for the return line, I saved majority of the factory thirdgen return/cooler line (below the rad). I just cut it on the passenger side and attached a hose with a clamp and ran it to the remote resivoir that I mounted on the passenger wheelwell.
