Not sure what you're asking. I bought the hydroboost unit from O'Reilly. I think it was a refurbed Astro van unit from early 90's. It is mounted upside down so the lines go to the bottom.

I bought those from another board member - Captainfab. He does great work. I bought the power booster bracket and hydroboost mounting plate.

Really really nice. Love the L92 engine cover, no unnecessary wires, and the Chevy orange. I plan to do mine similarly. Thanks for the ideas!

Did you have to run a high hump or anything to run the 80e?

Hey 67chevySupercharged, what kind of mods were required on the headers with the 4l80? I read somewhere with the 4l80, the Doug Thorley headers needed some grinding?
Thanks-
Doug

Here's mine as it sits right now. 2003 6.0. 4L80E. Where's everyone getting their trans cooler lines and power steering lines and fittings. I'm running a mustang power rack and my radiator has a built in trans cooler

Looks like were running the same rack anemic pinion. Where did you get your power steering lines?

I had the pressure side line made locally at a hydraulic hose supply house. The return line I just used what was existing (truck had ps when I bought it).

That looks great! What did you do for steering column and linkage? Did you recess the firewall at all? I'd love to see a few pictures of your steering linkage and radiator fan and shroud.
