1969 Camaro LQ4 swap Iroc Box PS? What PS pump and hoses should I use to complete this? I'd like off the shelf parts to keep the cost low. Thanks, Tim

What accessory drive system are you using? the LS car and truck pumps will work great with your steering setup. With your metric steering box you will be able to get a hose that's metric on both ends and will bolt right in place. It's just a matter of finding one that fits your setup.
I used a G body monte carlo hose on my chevelle and it worked great, but my box is in front of the crossmember and yours is behind.
If you do not have an accessory drive system yet then look into the Holley setup. It uses the corvette style type 2 power steering pump.

I have the exact setup you're wanting to do.
On mine I went to a local hydraulic hose shop and had them make me one for $35. Its a good way to do it because you can route the hose anyway you want, with whatever degree ends you want, in whatever length you want.
The Iroc box uses metric fittings. If you have the stock PS hose out of the truck it should fit right in. I don't know how it'll look, but it should work.
You can also run the stock 69 Camaro hose and get two adapters that convert from standard to metric sizes. I actually was running that for a while and it worked great.
