Re: 72 C20 Power Steering

I no longer have my 350, I sold it when I started on my LS swap, but I had a short pump with a 2-groove lower pulley and PS and everything lined up once I got the brackets all sorted out. Full disclosure I did need a few shims behind the main pulley but that's pretty common.

If I can find an old picture I'll post it.

Re: 72 C20 Power Steering

The metric fitting line can be cut off and the line re-flared with the standard flare nut. I did that on my truck. It worked ok for me. Also NAPA sells/installs the correct fitting onto the original hose like this ..this way you retain the metric fitting on the pump and standard flare on the box side.. the lady at Napa cut off the old fitting, and crimped the new fitting where I marked it for her..the last pic shows the line I just cut off and reflared..yes I cut my inner fender hahahaha.. Hopefully it ends up eezy peezy for you
