Like I mentioned a few weeks ago, I am putting a 1994 EFI 351W engine from an SVT Lightning into my '68 coupe. The '68 has power steering, and I'd like to keep it. The engine pulled from the Lightning has a PS pump attached. Does anyone know how hard it would be to make it work with the '68's steering?
Thanks! Thomas
Why would it be any harder than connecting the lines? Most "hose" shops can make hoses any length with any fittings on the ends. If you need a cooler, just put it on the return side. (Low pressure)

As designed, it won't work. The older pumps have different pressures and flow rates than the old ones. You could probably make it work if you used a Heidt's adjustable pressure valve.
So would the best bet be to use the '68 PS pump? Fab some sort of bracket?
