Pics of my !ABS and !PS http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/pic...absdelete1.jpg

My !ABS isn't finished yet. This is just the test run. The tubing is actaully metric and using an SAE flare tool doesn't do that well but you can use SAE fittings. I have to pick up the metric tool and finish it up.

I took the old lines from my V6 power steering and cut them about 4" away from the end of the fitting, then I picked up some thick vacuum hose that fit over the tubes VERY tightly and that's that. Very clean.
I have a bunch of new pics of the engine swap on my site which is linked in the sig too if anyone is interested.

What did you need to pull the motor for?

Re: Pics of my !ABS and !PS Wood is much lighter than chrome moly. I have the lightest k-member of them all! 
I pulled the motor again cause I was doing converter, long tubes, pulley, ls6 pcv and intake, and the PS and ABS delete.. I figured it'd be easire if I just yank'd it.
I got the vac hose from murrays I believe. It doesn't have to be heater hose or fuel line hoes, just something very snug on the pipes. I don't think fluid will be passing through it, but I think it just acts more as a seal. I WAS going to put hose clamps on the ends but it was so dang tight I couldn't even slide it on anymore.

Re: Pics of my !ABS and !PS Chris, I was going to clamp it too for safety but it is VERY tight. Plus, pressure won't be building up in the rack either.. so I'm all good.
I have no idea how braking is yet. I haven't driven the car. I still have to fix my lines and take new pics.. cause my 1/4" leaks.. and I need to replace my trans pump.
