I have a PS pump and accessories from a 98+ F-Body and would like to use Holley's accessory bracket kit. Well even though they have the spacers for the F-Body accessories you need to use the remote reservoir type pump off a Corvette.

What do I need to convert my pump? It looks like I need to press in a 45deg barb for the remote reservoir, the corvette reservoir it self?

I see Kwik sells some fittings but they seem pricey any info maybe I can pick some up at grainger or McMaster Carr for less $$$?

Thanks for the help.

It looks to me like you are correct on converting the pump. However I do not know if the reservoir on the Camaro pump can be removed.
Yes you need the Corvette remote reservoir.

The Holley part number from the instructions for the reservoir is 198-200, and that is a custom order part.

Thanks I should have mentioned I already got the f-body reservoir off that's when I noticed the pump doesn't have the metal barb like the Corvette pump shows for the reservoir tube.

I guess I just need more info on that piece and how to install is it threaded or pressed in what size is it?

It looks to me like a press fit. I think it is about 5/8" in diameter. I can get a more accurate measurement later.

Update
It appears to be around 16 or 18mm, but i don't want to try and remove the piece so I cant get any more accurate.

Thanks!

I couldn't find any press fit style hose barbs so it looks like ill have to thread the opening and use a standard 1/2 NPT to 5/8" barbed fitting.
