Default Hose routing on Corvette PS pump...

Need a pic or info on how the return hose is routed from the rack back to the reservoir, and if there's an adapter fitting for the HP hose from the pump to a -6 AN hose...

TIA!

It's been awhile... Here's how I did this using a compression style tube to AN adapter from Jeg's. The reservoir inlet has a "barb" end that needs to be cut off, the you need to sand the OD of the stub about 0.030" to get the compression sleeve to slide over it. As shown in the pic, it leaked because the nut is too long to allow the sleeve to slide completely up the stub. I had to lathe 1/4" off the end of the nut and re-taper it. Works perfect now.
