Power Steering Line
Do these require fancy fittings/hose or will regular SS braided stuff do the trick? Its the pressure side, which is why I am curious.
And if it does require fancy crimps, know any local places that can fab me up a line?
Thanks

Must be rated for PS. I run it and have made it by hand. It requires ferrels on the inner hose.

It may not be needed but the pressure line is dangerously close to a hotside pipe. I want to fix it before its an issue later on.

The high pressure line has o-rings seals @ both ends. M*d*l*r Turbo sells a kit, or you can just sleeve it with one of those lava rock made sleeves by DEI (i think that who sells it).

DEI makes all sorts of nice heat shield stuff. Check out aeroquip at least for info. I'll poke around for some info on other stuff I saw.
obligatory $0.02 warning. don't cheap out. I've seen PS hose breaks burn cars down.

Think of the bulging muscles you'd develop parking your 'street car' then!

Your assumption that my car will drive, is taken as a compliment.
