Go to Summit and search for power steering adapter fittings. They keep them in stock.

For my 72 Chevelle, I modified my LS1 ps hose by cutting off the fitting and and bending the end to fit in the old ps box and reflared a fitting on from a replacement hose for the old ps box. Worked great.

Go for a new box and the hose hooks up directly. You can get a box out of a yard for about $30 and you will not regret it one bit it is a very noticable difference. You will be steering down the road not floating. The one you want is for a B-Body -new Caprice, Roadmaster, Impala SS. The Jeeps also work.......

If you removed the big fitting from the back of your original pump and install it into the back of your new pump your old lines will work fine.
