Re: 72 Power Steering Pump Help Needed
that is a big block pump,as mentioned.a 3/4 hose hose from your power steering reservoir attaches to the pump,the remote reservoir bolts to the fender and is needed as there's no room under the alternator for the neck with a cap on the pump to pour in fluid like a small block pump.don't use heater hose,it'll leak.you need the correct hose or hydraulic hose that will live with oil.the 2 large holes in the front of the pump bracket are for a socket to reach through and get at the bolts that attach the mount bracket to the front of the block.i'll have to look at mine tomorrow to be sure but i think they're 7/16's coarse thread,an 1 1/4 long or so.if not 7/16's,they'll be 3/8's.take care.Greg
