Default Fox mustang power steering help

I have a 1993 Mustang notchback with an LS swap and was wondering what all I have to do to make the Mustang rack and pinion work with the ls power steering pump. I will also be using an f-body power steering pump. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I completed this earlier in my build, but here's a part list if anyone's interested:
135-RP1300 - This is a flow control valve, it knocks down the pressure from the GM pump to what the ford steering rack needs.
You will need a 16mX1.5 and a 14mmX1.5 fitting for the ford power-steering rack.
Then of coarse AN fittings and Hose approved for power-steering use.

Good luck!

Why do you need power steering on a fox body Mustang ?

While the "need" for creature comforts such as power steering and air conditioning is not universally shared between all Fox body LS swappers, there are those that "want" them for personal reasons.

Default gm power steering pump to ford mustang rack

I used this 91033104 from Speedway motors, cheap and trouble free, its inside the pump so you can use the orig gm fitting on the end of your ford hose.

I think you can also the low pressure fitting from Turn One. That will reduce flow to the steering rack.
