LS2 Power Steering Line
quick question for those of you that have completed the LSX conversion: I have an LS2 with GTO accessories and I need a pressure side power steering line. Reusing the stock line is not an option (I don't even know if it would fit the GTO pump anyway) since I destroyed it in a fit of rage. Should I get the LS2 hose and then change the steering box end? Thanks for your help.

Is the pump in the same location as an Fbody pump? If it is, buy an fbody pressure side line from RockAuto.com, I think its about $20 and fits great. It is what I am using.

Re: LS2 Power Steering Line
When i did my swap, i opted to run a russel teflon braided feed.
For the pump you need a M16x1.5 oring to 6an adapter, and then you need a M18x1.5oring to -6an for the gear box.
Then i ran 2 90* teflon fittings & bought 3' of line. i think it was around $60, and beyond working flawlessly, they looked friggen sweet!!
Liked them enough i made a braided feed for my 4th gen also


I ran a cooler in my return, so thats why my power steering runs to the front from the outlet.
