I got a madman alt bracket to mount the alt down low on the drivers side, but I need to keep my power steering. Al Grove sells a bracket kit to mount a type II power steering pump low on the drivers side, but how should I run the lines?
I was going to get a large aluminum reservoir and mount it on the drivers side frame rail and then get some -10 and -6 braided line to connect everything, but I still have to connect it to the rack, any ideas there?
Thanks in advance

That and my stock aluminum bracket was stripped by the PO and the power steering pump has to be checked every so often, and I'm sick of that. I tried to heli coil it and it didn't really work that well.
So cleaner and cooler is where I'm headed now, I guess I'll see where it takes me haha
Also is anyone using a power steering cooler? If so what one are you using??

I was looking at speedwaymotors website and they offer a low mount bracket for type II pumps, but its for SBC. Will it clear the opti or will it be in the way?? Heres the instructions and a pic of where it mounts http://static.speedwaymotors.com/pdf/910-32912.pdf

Well I ordered a resy and power steering bracket from speedway yesterday for $70 shipped too good of a deal to pass on. Now I need the power steering pump and some lines and adapters and I might be good to go.
