Default Power Steering AN lines...

I will be replacing my worn, tired old power steering rack aswell as rebuilding my power steering pump soon. I will also be adding in a oil cooler, and changing the line out to stainless steel lines with AN fittings. I need to confirm the fitting that will fit into the power steering pump. I did a search and came up with This link. Its for an ls1, is the fitting going to be the same, or no? I want to get everything ordered before i dig into it. Thanks

Thanks I already have the part numbers. I was just wanting ot make sure if the same fitting will fit into the LT1 power steering pump as it will the LS1.

Also. On which side should i run the cooler. On the pressure side to the rack or on the return side from the rack? Thanks

Be sure to use the ptfe hose and fittings. Regular ss braid and aluminum fittings are not rated for use on the high side.

Thanks for the reply John. I make hydraulic hoses in my machine shop so for the high side ill use a hose rated for 2k psi. That should be sufficient. I hope lol
