Default PS pump for LS with Truck Acc. Drive in 1st Gen

I'm keeping the truck accessory drive setup on the 6.0l I'm swapping into my '69 Camaro. I'm using the idler relo bracket from Lsbrackets.com and retaining the stock pump mounting. The stock pump (built in reservoir) has two low pressure hoses (1 for hydro boost)- one faces forward, and the other goes sideways and bumps the control arm. Anyone know of a stock pump that only has one low pressure line that faces the rear, since that's where the steering box is? Trying to keep the line routing clean.

Lots of trucks came without hydroboost. You can just cap off the unused port though. You do need to use the lower port on a hydroboost reservoir, otherwise you'll have a noisy pump due to airation.

capping is what I did too, have 6.0 truck ps pump on my 70 Camaro and works just fine
