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

yep...that's right...but I may may offer some advise is to get a small finned inline cooler for the return line...itll help keep the fluid temps down
I run mine between the steering box and reservoir...

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
