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.

Re: LS swappers, post up your pics!!

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

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.
