Default Steering Pressure line HELP
HI, I put a LQ4 into a 87 Monte SS. I have the Holley Accessory Drive Kit and I'm using the 09 Corvette pump (26120639)

The pressure outlet on the pump is REALLY close to the pulley. I was wondering what you guys came up with for a line from the pump to the box in the past, or ideas that will work...
Thanks!!

Has anyone tried that banjo fitting? It looks like it would fit with more clearance, but I don't know if it reduces flow or even seals correctly... Thx

I used a 2001 corvette pressure line on my swap. It fit perfectly.

The pump is just gravity fed from the reservoir. I would not recommend using a banjo type fitting there because it will restrict the fluid too much and starve the pump.

As stated above the stock type corvette hose should work for you.

[Edit]
Sorry I just realized you are talking about the pressure side.

Nobody answered me about the "Banjo fitting" on the other "Corvette post".
