HydroBoost Plumbing Diagram Help
Hello everyone, I have my hydro boost installed and I am getting ready to plumb all the hoses. I converted my 67 to power steering and the LS is out of a 2005 Silverado. I noticed the power steering pump has 2 barb connections and the high pressure fitting on the back of the pump. All the diagrams I came across showed only 1 barb return fitting on the pump. I found another diagram and modified it to what I have and would like input to make sure I am plumbing it up right. Thank you in advance for the help.

That will work, it is the way those systems are plumbed from the factory.

Re: HydroBoost Plumbing Diagram Help
mongocanfly, do you recommend installing a cooler only on the steering return? Or is there much point teeing both returns together and running both through the cooler?

Re: HydroBoost Plumbing Diagram Help
mine came factory only coming off the steering box....im not sure how much fluid runs thru the return line from the hydro...I think one off the steering box is good enough
