power steering is hooked up BUT!!!!

here is my situation, I have a 72 1/2 ton I put a 94 LT1 motor in it. I wanted all the accessories to be on the drivers side, that entails the A/C comp. the power steering and the Alt. so I have all the lines connected, High Pressure line off the gear box to the High Pressure side of the CORVETTE power Steering Pump. the low pressure line is from the bottom of the pump to the reservoir for the power steering and then the line goes from the reservoir to the truck gear box. Im not sure if it can go any other way. this is running a serpentine belt system. the belt is tracking the way it is intended to. and its been a long time for me to drive this truck but if its got power steering? (it had power steering before the 7 year rebuild) the good lord needs an 8th day because its all I can do to turn the steering while the engine is running. so is the corvette pump running backwards and this is why its not working the power steering or,

Please everyone help me out here, how do I troubleshoot this issue
